Comment:

Thank you for reporting this :)

> Uneccessary margin or padding between page title and add block.

This change was made to fix the issue where the object-tools overlap the
title when the object’s `__str__` is long(#36055 ).
I’m not sure that adjusting the current margin and padding provides enough
benefit to justify changing them.
If you feel that a change is needed, could you please provide a more
detailed explanation?

> prepopulated_field not working in object change.

The behavior of `prepopulated_fields` is intentional. Please see this
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/6.0/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.prepopulated_fields
documentation].

> Advice: Can you remove link underlining, it looks awful.

The underline on links is an accessibility improvement for users who can’t
distinguish links by color alone.(#34917)

> Need clear explanation: Where to look for django tasks production.

What exactly do you mean by “tasks” here?
Are you referring to the background task added in 6.0?
Could you please add a bit more explanation?

Replying to [comment:3 Kartik]:
> prepopulated_fields behavior make this optional for user because in some
case we needed.

If you’d like to see `prepopulated_fields` improved, could you recreate
the ticket with more detailed information?

> Yes, i am talking about backgrond task that was added in 6.0
> i. Those task runs on same thread or diffrent.

That said, this might be more suitable for the
[https://forum.djangoproject.com/ Community] rather than a ticket.
I’d suggest asking in the Community first!
