Tiddlers can have fields. So you can assign fields for birth year, favourite author, occupation, etc. As in all databases, it's important that the input information be consistent. So you wouldn't want a person's occupation to be input variously as Doctor, Physician, Radiologist. Or a favorite author to sometimes be Tolstoy and others as "tolstoy". Or "Toystory". You can make a template to help with tiddler creation, so that when you match by favorite authors, it will always be by "Tolstoy" .
