When you save an object in the admin that is spatially enabled the error "'unicode' object has no attribute 'wkt'" is thrown when there is a field validation error on another field. For example, if you have a URLField and a MultipolygonField on a model and try to save an object with an invalid URL in the URLField you'll get the error. Here are the details:
