django.contrib.auth.models.User: <django.contrib.auth.admin.UserAdmin at 0x2262a10>,
django.contrib.sites.models.Site: <django.contrib.sites.admin.SiteAdmin at 0x2262c90>,
testapp.models.Up: <django.contrib.admin.options.ModelAdmin at 0x2269c10>,
nashvegas.models.Migration: <nashvegas.admin.MigrationAdmin at 0x2262ad0>}

"""
app_dict = {}
user = request.user
for model, model_admin in self._registry.items():
