While it's fairly self explainitory and I've pretty much been able to figure out the answer to my question through experimetation (whether delete() is instant or requires a call to save() to make the change in the DB). I say this was a suprising ommision because Django's docs are about the best I have used for any bit of software." closed Documentation 1.0 duplicate Unreviewed 0 0 0 0 0 0
