si, I am not so sure what you are asking here,

Yes you can do this and you will need to treat these fields as lists, the time stamp should perhaps be made into a title [[date time]] and you are likely to use the Listops Operators <https://tiddlywiki.com/#Filter%20Operators> and Order Operators. This is where the log tool instead would place this change in a Datatiddler.. Look for the data tiddler in the log tool to see what I have done. My log tool could be reworked to meet your needs but if your new to tiddlywiki it may not be so simple. The advantage of the log tool is actions on multiple tiddlers are logged in a timeline and can be all seen at once. You could create your own Log buttons for "start", "finish" and "format" that places the time date stamp in the log. > It sounds like you are saying that this is a bad idea?
