I think the request was really "Please tell us how to use this
buster-proposed-updates thing, which I've never heard of before."
Here's a wiki page: <https://wiki.debian.org/StableProposedUpdates>
However, I would not follow its advice literally. You *never* want
to put the word "stable" in your sources.list. You want to put the
actual name of a release instead.
So, wherever the wiki says to use stable-proposed-updates, please use
buster-proposed-updates instead.
