docs/intro/tutorial04.txt: Incorrect Information in Amend Views section

Description

In the tutorial https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/intro/tutorial04/#amend-views, the tutorial says that no changes needed for vote()

def vote(request, question_id):
    ... # same as above, no changes needed.

Since question_id is replaced by pk, so this change needs to be done in the vote() method as well.

Error Log:

Traceback:

I'd like to submit a patch for it if the community approves it as a bug.

I don't see question_id replaced by pk in the URL patterns. I see url(r'^(?P<question_id>[0-9]+)/vote/$', views.vote, name='vote'),. Maybe you made a typo?
