Now put the existing contents of article_list.html, the {% for %} loop, into the block "content".

no idea what is asking me to do

articles/templates/articles/article_list.html
{% extends "base.html" %}


{% for article in articles %}
{% block content %} 
{{ article.headline }}

What the challenge is asking you to wrap the existing for loop with a block tag that is named "content". This means adding the start block tag before the {% for .... %} and adding an endblock tag after the {% endfor %}.

The start block tag would be {% block content %} and the end block tag would be {% endblock %}
