Description

Right after adding slug fields to my models I spent a long time looking for how to prepopulate them, or source them from other fields. I eventually just found prepopulated field randomly.

The link should go from this paragraph

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/#slugfield
to
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#prepopulated-fields

and i suggest text
"If you want to use another field as the source of a slug in the admin system, use prepopulated_fields"
