    General question about scripts, some scripts tell you to place
    them in your python directory, whether that is your Maya default
    installation directory or a custom directory set forth by your
    maya env variable file.  At the moment my scripts are all throw in
    a custom python scripts folder, quite messy, I have begun placing
    the scripts within the python scripts folder, but within a
    respectful directory for organization, and also for easy upgrading
    of scripts, maybe some of you do this as well ?

They don't have to specifically be placed in Maya's python locations. They just need to be in the PYTHONPATH by some means. Like you said, this may have been extended via the Maya.env or otherwise.


    Since beginning to do this, I get when running the script command,
    whatever that may be for a particular script; I get the following
    error; *<script name> is not defined error* ?

Is this the actual python error? What were you trying to execute, and where was it located on your file system?


This is the actual error, although the script is not called <script name> you knew that, that is strictly a placeholder for the actual script name. I placed the script in my pythonscripts path and I get that error, does it matter if the script is within a folder in the pythonscripts path ?
