There's no reason why you can't split these into separate apps, then create a templates directory and urls.py in each app folder, if this will help the site organisation. You'll have to make sure you add each app to settings.py, create __init__.py in every app folder. Just go for it. Get everyone working on those articles to use a repo and teach them how to pull and push changes. Then you simply deploy the changes when you want to... That's just my 2 cents.
