+Password reset view now accepts ``subject_template_name``
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The ``password_reset`` view in ``django.contrib.auth`` now accepts a
+``subject_template_name`` parameter, which is passed to the password save form
+as a keyword argument. If you are using this view with a custom password reset
+form, then you will need to ensure your form's ``save()`` method accepts this
+keyword argument.
