Two things you might want to look into: The first is model inheritance (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/models/#id4). You could, for example, have an abstract ``TrackedObject`` model and a set of concrete subclasses for each type of thing to be tracked. Or, you might want to look at ``django.contrib.contenttypes`` (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/contenttypes/), paying careful attention to generic relations (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/contenttypes/#id1). This would let you have a generic ``TrackedObject`` object with a (sort of) foreign key to *any* other object of any type.
