-----------------------------------------+------------------------
 Firstly, the documentation is great. In the
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.empty_value_display
 admin site docs], it has this example:

 {{{
 from django.contrib import admin

 class AuthorAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
     fields = ('name', 'title', 'view_birth_date')

     @admin.display(empty_value='???')
     def view_birth_date(self, obj):
         return obj.birth_date]
 }}}

 I think this will only work for the list display, not setting the empty
 value of the field during edit view.
 Hence I think
 {{{
 fields = ('name', 'title', 'view_birth_date')
 }}}
 should become
 {{{
 list_display = ('name', 'title', 'view_birth_date')
 }}}
