What's wrong with article_confirm_delete.html template?

I get a: Bummer! Hmm, ArticleDelete doesn't seem to have the correct template.

articles/views.py
from django.views.generic import ListView, DetailView, CreateView, UpdateView, DeleteView

from . import models


class ArticleList(ListView):
    model = models.Article


class ArticleDetail(DetailView):
    model = models.Article


class ArticleCreate(CreateView):
    model = models.Article
    fields = ('title', 'body', 'author', 'published')


class ArticleUpdate(UpdateView):
    model = models.Article
    fields = ('title', 'body', 'author', 'published')


class ArticleDelete(DeleteView):
    model = models.Article
articles/templates/articles/article_form.html
<form action="" method="post">
  {% csrf_token %}
  {{ form.as_p }}
  <input type="submit" class="btn" value="Submit">
</form>
articles/templates/articles/article_confirm_delete.html
<h1>{{ article.title }}</h1>
<form method="POST">
  {% csrf_token %}
  <input type="submit" value="Delete" class="btn btn-danger">
  <a href="{% url 'articles:detail' %}">Cancel</a>
</form>

You can't just have an url to 'articles:detail' without specifying which article you want. The DetailView url takes a pk value as an argument.
