I'm curious - do people actually write straight into TW for long texts? How come this hasn't been much of an issue for everyone else? Or is it just that most people take quick notes / bullet points and never feel the need to write or paste very long articles?

Depending on your final use of the text you capture from elsewhere and whether you intend to edit it. you can get a browser tool to copy as html from the source, and paste this html it tiddlywiki thus retaining much of its original structure.

This is an interesting idea. Kind of a structured master tiddler so you can manage a paragraph at a time.
It would be worth the experiment.

Wow, thank you so much everyone for all the help. While I understand the philosophy behind TiddlyWiki, with each tiddler being the smallest unit of information, I often write longer essays and it wouldn't feel natural to break them into separate tiddlers, so it's great to see there are workarounds.
Wow, thank you so much everyone for all the help....
@FrD: Thank you! If I understand correctly, I'd have to tag each new tiddler with the corresponding data-tag to make sure these custom styles are applied?
