 This bug describes issues of this documentation page:
 https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/initial-data/

 The same issues exist in master branch as of today.

 According to many sources (e.g.
 https://www.caktusgroup.com/blog/2015/11/10/initial-data-django/ ),
 fixtures are deprecated way for managing initial data. It is not mentioned
 there. Also it doesn't describe how to use migrations for that purpose.
 Link to https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/migrations/#data-
 migrations would be extremely useful.
