Well django does recommend using the admin for everything admin-related, if I stop using the admin for editing an article, then I would have to write a whole bunch of code just to edit a single article. Suddenly the benefit of a unified admin interface is lost and I have to deal with permissions, UI, validation, forms.. it seems like a nightmare for something should work in the first place... (i.e. overriding the save() method to add extra functionality) From the django features list: A dynamic admin interface: it's not just scaffolding it's the whole house [The philosophy here is that your site is edited by a staff, or a client, or maybe just you and you don't want to have to deal with creating backend interfaces just to manage content.]
