21708	Documentation makes two distinct points but implies conjunction	ashley@…	nobody	"As a django newbie I was confused by the following section:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/http/urls/#notes-on-capturing-text-in-urls

The first section talks about the difference between URL matching types and the types passed as view arguments, the latter being only strings.

This is followed by what I thought was a conjunction ""A convenient trick is to..."", implying a solution to the type disparity described above.

Interpreted thus, the next section implies that setting a default parameter will cause an implicit type conversion to occur.

In fact, the next section simply talks about a completely separate point, namely using a parameterised function for a non-parameterised url.

Perhaps I'm just splitting hairs here, but I think the documentation would be improved if these two different notes were delineated in the documentation. Perhaps via bullet points."	Uncategorized	closed	Documentation	1.6	Normal	fixed			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	1	0
