You've cunningly cut out from the code you posted the actual contents
of the Command class, which is the bit that would enable us to
diagnose the problem. But at a guess, you have just put the script
directly under the class. It actually needs to go into a method called
'handle', which is what is called when the command is run. Without
that method, Django is calling the method in the base class, which
raises NotImplementedError to tell you you need to override it.
class Command(BaseCommand):
help = """Removes doubled up HTML classes caused by a TinyMCE
problem"""
def handle(self, *args, **options):
... script goes here...
