+.. code-block:: python
+    import django.db.models.options as options
+    options.DEFAULT_NAMES = options.DEFAULT_NAMES + ('description',)
+     
+Then for each model as necessary, add a description attribute to the model ``Meta``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+    class HomePage(Page):

+
+    class Meta:
+        description = "The top level homepage for your site"
+        verbose_name = "Homepage"
