 The ```ModelAdmin.prepopulated_fields``` documentation now states:

 {{{
 When set, the given fields will use a bit of JavaScript to populate from
 the fields assigned. The main use for this functionality is to
 automatically generate the value for SlugField fields from one or more
 other fields. The generated value is produced by concatenating the values
 of the source fields, and then by transforming that result into a valid
 slug (e.g. substituting dashes for spaces).
 }}}
 See:
 
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.prepopulated_fields

 This option is not a solution for using javascript in general to
 prepopulate fields in the admin, but is specifically designed for use with
 ```SlugField``` and autopopulating this type of field. Because of this
 specific use I propose to rename the option in a future version of Django
 to better clarify the intended use of this option. A more logical naming
 would be: ```prepopulated_slug_fields```

 So instead of:
 {{{
 #!python
 class ArticleAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
     prepopulated_fields = {"slug": ("title",)}
 }}}

 One would use:
 {{{
 #!python
 class ArticleAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
     prepopulated_slug_fields = {"slug": ("title",)}
 }}}
