Description

Now that we're in the 2.0 release cycle and Python 3 only, any examples or code in Django using a \d in a regex URL pattern should be replaced with [0-9], as \d on Python 3 matches any character with Unicode category [Nd], which is almost certainly not what people expect. Changing to explicit [0-9], perhaps with a note about why it should be preferred, would be better.
