Placement of Arranger name

Hi all,
I'm arranging a folk tune by Trad. and was wondering, do I put my name (as arranger) under Trad, like so...?

Thanks for any advice.
Cheers,
Hector.

I don't think it matters but I usually put it the next line down from the title, aligned to the right, where the composer's name usually goes.
Although you did not ask this, you have "Traditional" as the title. I think it is better to use the song's name and mention that it is traditional - maybe under the title or where the composer's name goes.

Thanks, Ian. Sorry my picture wasn't clear. What I am showing in the picture is actually just the right hand side of the page (showing the composer as TRAD. and under it, my name). The title is not shown in my picture, but I've placed it in the normal centre position.

Anyway, thanks. I think I am happy with it now!

Cheerio,
Hector.

That's certainly one common style. Another one is all on one line, as: "Trad. arr. Hector Pascal".

Sorry Hector, I should have looked at your image more carefully.

I do it and have for years just like your example. That's nice.
