 First of all let's refactor our `UserListView` and `UserDetailView` views into a single `UserViewSet`.  We can remove the two views, and replace then with a single class:
 
-    class UserViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
+    class UserViewSet(viewsets.ReadOnlyModelViewSet):

         queryset = User.objects.all()
         serializer_class = UserSerializer
 
 Next we're going to replace the `SnippetList`, `SnippetDetail` and `SnippetHighlight` view classes.  We can remove the three views, and again replace them with a single class.
