No, that's not what it means. It means you have one name per URL type: in
your case, it would be for "colors", which can then take a parameter "blue"
or "green" or whatever - exactly as the example you link to has
"arch-summary" with a parameter of the year.

It shows that you are passing blank strings for the pk and slug parameters
in the reverse call. Without seeing the code though we can't tell you why.
