Pull request overview

Maintenance-focused cleanup across Django/Python and legacy JS templates/static assets to reduce dead code, tighten scoping, and make behavior more predictable.

Changes:

• Remove unused imports and commented-out blocks across tests, views, and migrations.
• Scope previously-implicit JavaScript globals with const/let while preserving needed window.* exports for TinyMCE config.
• Make DRF CustomModelSerializer(exclude=...) resilient to unknown field names and add a regression test.
