Comment:

 Django should find the template provided the following:

  1. The template is named correctly,
  2. The template is in an `admin` directory
  3. The `admin` directory is within a directory named in your
 TEMPLATE_DIRS setting.

 I believe the tutorial has proper instructions for accomplishing that if
 read carefully.

 In your case, the template is being found at
 `mysite/polls/templates/admin` as you mention because the generic
 `django.template.loaders.app_directories.load_template_source` in
 TEMPLATE_LOADERS is finding it.

 My guess is that you simply missed a detail in the tutorial or mistyped
 something in your paths.

 If you still feel this is a problem, please give us more information about
 the directory you tried placing the template in, and what exactly your
 TEMPLATE_DIRS looked like?
