Dates stored on tiddlers are stored in the form YYYYMMDDHHMM When displaying dates this string is converted to a human readable string.
Thus I wouldn't worry about any consequences of changing how the dates are displayed in the timeline or elsewhere in the TiddlyWiki. As long as you are only displaying dates rather than manipulating them you won't have a problem. On Mar 24, 9:47 am, "B.
