I have two models: a Video and a Question. The "video" field in the
Question model is a ForeignKey to the video model. If the video has pk =
{{{'Ml_XFX_5CYo'}}} and it is assigned to a question, then when you try to
view or edit the video from the question page in the admin section,
clicking on the link results in an error that the video with pk =
{{{'Ml_XFX\Yo'}}} does not exist. For some reason, when trying to access
the video from the question card, {{{'Ml_XFX_5CYo'}}} turns into
{{{'Ml_XFX\Yo'}}}. I think problem on
{{{django.contrib.admin.utils.quote}}} function (maybe not). Presumably,
the problem is that the url conversion or protection mechanism considers
{{{_5C}}} as {{{%5C}}} and Ml_XFX**_5C**Yo' turns into 'Ml_XFX**\**Yo'.
