I usually do this by setting up a method to return an HTML link to a custom
admin page, referencing that in the list_display tuple:
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_display = ('name', 'action_link')
def action_link(self, obj):
return "<a href='%s'>Do action on this object</a>" %
reverse('action_view', args=(obj.pk,))
action_link.allow_tags = True
