9. 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``s, 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").
