title: Can I call a view from within another view?
body: <p>One of my view needs to add an item, along with other functionality, but I already have another view which specifically adds an item. </p>
  
  <p>Can I do something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>def specific_add_item_view(request):
      item = Item.objects.create(foo=request.bar)
  
  def big_view(request):
      # ...
      specific_add_item_view(request)
  </code></pre>
