 If anyone has a better suggestion of how to deal with this, let me know.
 
-Template tag decorators see #625 . This can make defining some template tags very easy. 
+=== Template Tag decorators ===
+defining tags in the 'standard' branch requires you to parse the string the user enters, and can be quite daunting for a newbie. 
+
+In the new-admin branch you can now create a tag for use in your templates by simply doing the following:
+{{{
+from django.core.template.decorators import simple_tag
+...
+...
+def monkey_tag(verb):
+    return "I %s no evil" % verb
+monkey_tag = simple_tag(monkey_tag)
+
+}}}
+
+you would then just load the tag library in your page like
+{{{
+{% load monkey %}
+{% monkey_tag "hear" %}
+}}}
+
+Template tag decorators see #625 goes into more detail.
