Description

Some part of the tutorial contains the old format way (with the % operator)

return HttpResponse("You're looking at question %s." % question_id)
response = "You're looking at the results of question %s."
return HttpResponse(response % question_id)

I think it’s better to guide newcomers to the new way.
I’m ready to submit a patch for this if there’s nothing against it.

There is nothing wrong in % format. I don't see any reason to prefer .format(), see discussion. We could consider using f-strings, but that's a duplicate of a more general ticket, see #29988.
