=================
Model inheritance in Django works almost identically to the way normal
class inheritance works in Python. The only decision you have to make
is whether you want the parent models to be models in their own right
(with their own database tables), or if the parents are just holders
of common information that will only be visible through the child
models.

models in their own right (with their own database tables), or if the parents
are just holders of common information that will only be visible through the
child models.
