"""
Many-to-many relationships via an intermediary table

For many-to-many relationships that need extra fields on the intermediary
table, use an intermediary model.

In this example, an ``Article`` can have multiple ``Reporter`` objects, and
each ``Article``-``Reporter`` combination (a ``Writer``) has a ``position``
field, which specifies the ``Reporter``'s position for the given article
(e.g. "Staff writer").
