Let's change the spelling of time stamp to timestamp because it is spelled as "timestamp" upstream and there can be a discrepancy between our running text and screens.

MW allows the variant timestamp, too.

According to some online research :
The spelling of the word “timestamp” or “time stamp” varies depending on the source. The Oxford English Dictionary and Computer Hope write “timestamp” as one word, while Merriam-Webster and the Microsoft Manual of Style write “time stamp” as two words. Both spellings are correct and widely used.
