JKM, 

After putting quotes around your numbers (and fixing where a So-called 
"smart" quote had crept in during my editing, sorry about my earlier post, 
now deleted), both records import fine for me.

I have found that raw numbers for field content (as in your kbarating 
field) will not work; only data enclosed in quote marks seems to work.

Note the field data (beyond title and text) doesn't show in the import 
preview tiddler. But the data should be in there, as you can confirm by 
entering edit mode for the tiddlers once imported.
