@@ -720,6 +720,9 @@ Django places some restrictions on model field names:
#. A field name cannot end with an underscore, for similar reasons.
+#. A field name cannot be ``check``, as this would override the check
+ framework's ``Model.check()`` method.

necessarily have to match your database column name. See the
:attr:`~Field.db_column` option.
