This is a Python problem, not a Django problem. I strongly suggest you
take time to learn Python.
When the 'class Meta:' statement is eval'd, the LinkForm class doesn't
even yet exists - so there's no hope an instance of LinkForm could
exists.
FWIW, there's nothing special with name 'self' in Python. Instance
methods receive the current instance as first argument, and by
convention, this argument is named 'self', but you could name it
'ekky_ekky_ekky_ekky_zBang' just the same.
To make a long story short, what you're trying to do just cannot work
- or at least, not that way.
