+filters available for a given site. To activate it, follow these steps:
+
+ * Add :mod:`django.contrib.admindocs` to your :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS`.
+ * Add ``(r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls'))`` to your
+ :data:`urlpatterns`. Make sure it's included *before* the ``r'^admin/'``
+ entry, so that requests to ``/admin/doc/`` don't get handled by the
+ latter entry.
+ * Install the docutils module (http://docutils.sf.net/).
+
+After you've followed those steps, you can start browsing the documentation by
+going to your admin interface and clicking the "Documentation" link in the
+upper right of the page.
The reference is divided into 4 sections: tags, filters, models, and views.
