your reply gave me another idea:
rename the class which I have now as Author to Person and create
subclass Author using OneToOne relation, where I'll keep not only
place, but also affiliation like this:
from django.db import models
class Person(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(maxlength=50)
class Author(models.Model):
person = models.ForeignKey(Person, unique=True)
place = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()
affiliation = models.CharField(maxlength=50)
reference=models.ForeignKey(Reference)
class Reference(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(maxlength=50, primary_key=True)
authors = models.ManyToManyField(Author)
It looks more naturally now, person can be an author of paper after
all :-) thank you for idea! probably I'll use it in couple more places
