RST error in docs at /dev/topics/class-based-views

[Daniele Procida]

See: ​https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/class-based-views/#subclassing-generic-views

There's some text in the file /docs/topics/class-based-views/index.html that renders as: "~django.views.generic.base.TemplateView is a class, not a function". This is obviously some incorrectly marked up RST.

I've marked this ticket as especially suitable for first-time committers or people following the ​Don't be afraid to commit tutorial. If you're tackling this ticket, please don't hesitate to ask me for guidance if you'd like any, either here or on the Django IRC channels, where I can be found as EvilDMP.

There's a similar instance in topics/http/shortcuts.html: "A model: the model’s :meth:`~django.db.models.Model.get_absolute_url()"
