Get the list of all the models, that current user connected to

I hope, that I wrote the Title correctly...)))

I have the model article, that can connect to User through ManyToMany field.

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.db import models

class Article(models.Model):
    class Meta():
        db_table = 'article'

    article_users = models.ManyToManyField(User, null=True, blank=True, default=None)
    article_title = models.CharField(max_length=200, blank=False, null=False)
    article_content = models.IntegerField(choices=CONTENT_CHOICES, null=True, blank=True)

And I can list all the users, who connected to that model in the template through:

{% for user in article.article_users.all %}
    {{ user.username }}
{% endfor %}

But how can I list all the models, to which is current User connected to?

Is that what you are looking for ?

{% for article in user.article_set.all() %}
    {{article.article_title}}
{% endfor %}

Maybe you will need to prevent this code if user is anonymous :

{% if user.is_authenticated() %}
    {% for article in user.article_set.all() %}
        {{article.article_title}}
    {% endfor %}
{% else %}
    # Do something for anonymous users.
{% endif %}

Edit : replaced request.user with user

Can't you write something like this in your view : 

Article.objects.filter(article_users=current_user)

or should the request necessarily be in the template ?

(see also the django documentation for Many to many relationship)
