Addition for FAQ, or a warning somewhere for convert_to_south and migrate zero

[anonymous]

If you convert an existing app to South, that has data in the DB

  ./manage.py convert_to_south myapp

Don't migrate backwards unless you have backups, or don't care about the data.

./manage.py migrate myapp zero

I just did it, and luckily I don't care about the data. I realize it was stupid now, but that's quite a potential disaster for someone that possibly just hasn't had a coffee yet, or enough sleep.

Yes, that would be a Bad Thing. It's pointed out several places in the docs that migrations can delete things and you should always have backups, but I'll add another warning on the conversion page.
