------------------------------------------------+------------------------
As noted in [https://github.com/django/django/pull/2231 this PR], the
"Built-in views" page isn't very useful. We should expand this page into a
proper reference guide for the functions in `django.views`, probably
moving some content from `topics/http/views.txt`.

Comment (by oswalpalash@…):

I totally Agree to your point. For new users view's functions need to be
defined more practically for usage. I'm a newbie here, but I'd like to
contribute to this fix. I'd be glad to help out and write the
documentation part.

Comment (by JLinden):

The error views are currently ordered by most commonly used, should we
keep it that way or order them by status code instead? As in 400, 403,
404, 500.

Comment (by timo):

I think the current order is okay, but I don't feel strongly about it. We
are likely to replace them with something more generic anyway (see
#22058).
