At the moment if you try to create a timemap with same slug/name as an existing one you just get a blank page saying:

Conflict - Object already exists

Instead recommend:

Have something on the create/edit page that checks conflict every time you change the slug field and reports if there is a conflict
Also: make the error message somewhat nicer
