@Mohammad, I hope, between all the great things you are doing, you are still thinking about “Search In Fields”?
It is worth noting that TW search supports simple emojis with regex too …

For initial editing I need to sample one-in-500 initially to gauge what needs doing.
Using the “scope” is the best way to limit returned Tiddlers I think.
So the Scope Filter here is: [all[tiddlers]!is[system]regexp[Perry Mason \d+?(5|0)00$]] to return every 500th item … result …
