This a good application for named urls with passing arguments.

for example, given a urls.py containing

    url(r'^edit/(?P<item_id>[0-9]+)/$', edit_item, name="edit_item"),

in your template you can do this:

{% for item in item_query %}
<tr>
    <td><a href="{% url edit_item item_id=item.pk %}">Edit</a></td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}

Hope that helps! Named urls are the preferred DRY method too and so
easy to use!
