Before you edit further
editIf indeed you are a lawyer you will appreciate that most of the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Hammond_(Australia) needs to be edited (it is on the way to deletion anyways) you must get a handle on
Most of what you have written is basically unverifiable and unnecessary and unnotable private detail for an online encyclopedia - if there was notable work for slater and gordon - it would have to be specific mention as being something specifically notable as part of the slater and gordon work - news reports etc etc SatuSuro 12:22, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
If you genuinely want to possibly retrieve the article before deletion - look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christina_Amphlett - that should sort you out a bit - see what is in and what is not put in - SatuSuro 12:34, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] 1 Biography
Tim was born in Western Australia. His parents, Chris and Naomi, were from working class backgrounds. His father was a publican until he started his own small business and his mother works as a secretary in the medical profession. Tim spent his childhood and early adult years growing up in the suburbs of South Perth, Como, Victoria Park and Kensington.
Tim’s father started his own real estate agency in South Perth, which operated successfully for 17 years until his death in 2005. Tim went to school at the local Catholic primary school, and then attended Trinity College on a full academic scholarship.
In 1993, upon finishing high school, Tim commenced a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Western Australia and completed that degree with a double major in history and politics in 1995.
In 1996 Tim commenced his law degree at Murdoch University in Western Australia, completing this in 1998.
In 1999 he started work at Slater & Gordon. He initially practised in most areas of personal injuries law, represented many trade union members, had success in the High Court of Australia and represented indigenous landowners in class actions against international corporations in Papua New Guinea and Bougainville.
Tim has specialised in asbestos litigation since 2002. Since then he has prosecuted hundreds of cases on behalf of victims suffering from terminal asbestos disease. Tim assisted in the Special Commission of Enquiry into the activities of James Hardie, where Slater & Gordon represented asbestos victims groups.

Proposed history merge of Tim Hammond (Activist)
edit
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Tim Hammond a different title by copying its content and pasting it into Tim Hammond (Activist). This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. --MLauba (talk) 09:33, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
