Python Django Class-based Views Classy Views ListView and DetailView

"List and Detail" challenge - Django Class-based View Course

I am having trouble in the "list and detail" challenge, the error message I am getting is "Bummer! Hmm, didn't get the right view for the Article List URL". 

My urls.py looks like this

from django.conf.urls import url

from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^/$', views.ArticleList.as_view(), name="list"),
    url(r'^(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.ArticleDetail.as_view(), name="detail"),
]

My views.py looks like this:

from django.views.generic import ListView, DetailView

from . import models


class ArticleList(ListView):
    model = models.Article


class ArticleDetail(DetailView):
    model = models.Article

The article_list.html template looks like this:

<h1>Articles</h1>

<ul>
  {% for article in article_list %}
  <li>{{ article.title }}</li>
  {% endfor%
</ul>

And the article_detail.htm template looks like this:

<h1>Article title</h1>
<p>By: {{ article.author }}</p>

{{ article.body|linebreaks }}

Is there an error that I am not seeing or is there something wrong with the code checking on this challenge?

Thanks!

In article_list.html you forgot the closing curly brace in {% endfor %}, in article_detail.htm you should change <h1>Article title</h1> to <h1>{{ article.title }}</h1>

The first one was a typo which I had correct the first time.

But I totally didn't think to make:

<h1>Article title</h1>

become:

<h1>{{ article.title }}</h1>
