 Hello,

 This is a piece of code that first describe the use of method attributes
 in callback functions used in list_display on Django tutorial, page two
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial02/]
 {{{
 class Question(models.Model):
     # ...
     def was_published_recently(self):
         return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() -
 datetime.timedelta(days=1)
     was_published_recently.admin_order_field = 'pub_date'
     was_published_recently.boolean = True
     was_published_recently.short_description = 'Published recently?'
 }}}

 The problem is none of those method attribute definitions take you
 somewhere where it describes what they do. It can be very confusing for a
 person starting out. In fact, it would be awesome if there was some kind
 of index of method attributes one can use since their descriptions on the
 admin page are scattered.
