Description
This was my question and answer that I asked in the IRC chatroom #Django on freenode. I thought it might be worth showing an example of this. Maybe it is beyond the scope of this document - maybe not... for sure it was a question on my mind when I read this tutorial.
Chatroom copy/paste:
[1:52pm] filmer: I have a newb question about urls - I'm following http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial03/#simplifying-the-urlconfs And under "Simplifying the URLconfs it shows how you can set 'polls.views' at the beginning of patterns variable. My question is - what if later on down in patterns you want to list something else that has nothing to do with polls.views - for instance admin or CSS or anything else that you might have going on - how do you snip off 'polls.views'?

[1:54pm] j00bar: filmer: you either don't put anything at the beginning of patterns or you concatenate multiple calls to patterns() together when composing urlpatterns
[1:54pm] filmer: j00bar: Thank you very much
[1:55pm] • filmer owes j00bar a beer

[1:56pm] filmer: maybe they should show an example of that in the tutorial - it might prove helpful in the future for other dumb people like me

(In [14472]) Fixed #14627 -- Made Tutorial 3 more explicit regarding the transformations the URLconf undergoes in the final two sections, and gave an example of concatenating two patterns() in the process. Thanks to filmer for the report.
