What's the value of "s" that you're passing to reverse? Reverse takes
the same arguments as the return value of get_absolute_url() -- i.e.,
a string URL label, plus a dictionary of kwargs:

>>> reverse('my-url-name', kwargs={'arg1': 'value1'})

The error you're reporting looks like you're passing something other
than a string into reverse.
