Description

In section Customize the admin change list (​https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/tutorial02/#customize-the-admin-change-list), the following appears:

although because it uses a LIKE query behind the scenes, **keep it reasonable**, to **keep your database happy**.

I think the phrases marked with double-asterisks may be hard for non-native English speakers. Personally I like the English idioms, but perhaps you can make more literal translations available for non-native English speakers?

For instance:
"limit the number of search terms"
"avoid computationally expensive searches in the database"
