21468	Django 1.5: Docs on ModelForm validation are wrong	direx	nobody	"From '''docs/topics/forms/modelforms.txt#validation-on-a-modelform''':


{{{
Model validation (Model.full_clean()) is triggered from within the form validation step, right after the form’s clean() method is called.
}}}


This is '''wrong'''. Prior to Django 1.6 only ''Model.clean()'' is called by ''BaseModelForm._post_clean()''.

There are two options here:

- Changing the Docs
- Fixing the API (backport f34cfec0fa1243b4a3b9865b961a2360f211f0d8)"	Bug	closed	Documentation	1.5	Normal	fixed	model form validation		Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
