I've been relying on the ItemCreated to automatically track dates in my logs.  I just found an instance where the recorded info is wrong.
 
The item was created 12/8/18 but ItemCreated shows today's date.  (I know the correct date because in this case I put it in the text of the item when I created it).
 
What would cause the ItemCreated field to change to today's date?
 
Suggestions: the item tooltip (ctrl>mouse hover) displays the modified date for items.  Would be nice if it also showed the created date.  I use this much more often and there's plenty of room in the pop-up box.
Even better would be to make it configurable.

Hi Wayne,
 
Strange indeed. Created date is written using the PC system's date when it is created. Are you sure that you did not do an XML copy of another item ? (which was indeed created on Dec 8th 2018, which I suppose the ambiguous 12/8/18 refers to)

I'm sure I didn't copy/paste it today.  It's part of a series of entries, all of which have the correct creation date (12/8/18) except this one.
I did modify it today so it looks like the modify date also somehow got applied to.the ItemCreated field.
