Description
Following the forum discussion here, add a Profile How-To showing best practices for a profile model related to the User model.
- Show a best-practice model — with decent name fields.
- Be clear to tell folks that the existing
first_name/last_namefields are outdated (at best) and say it’s OK to just ignore them. - Show creating the profile instance — with a signal, inline, or using get_or_create()
- Give an introduction to template fragment caching.

Hello, thank you for the PR. Please refer to the contributing docs in how to update the ticket flags so the PR appears in the review queue. I'll set it now but it would be very helpful if you would update the flags yourself in the future. Thanks again!

Hello! Why do you say contributor is not active? There hasn't been a single review for the PR yet, so there is nothing the author can do until feedback is provided. One way of contributing to the project is to providing meaningful reviews.
Based on previous interactions in other tickets, I would recommend that you consider looking for a ticket with no owner, or a ticket where there is an owner with a PR with long standing issues that haven't been addressed in a long time.

Surely I would follow your advice, I am new to the Django ticket workflow so I did not know. I thought contributor was not active.
Gladly accepting this!
Also TIL (not really today but very recently) about template fragment caching. Looking forward to reading this!
