Incorrect pluralization of model names in the admin panel

[Sanjeev Holla S]

Whenever we register a model, in the admin panel the names of these models are shown in the plural form. But as of now, a sufix of 's' is being added to the name of the model. This is not correct in all the cases. So for example, if the name of the model is company then it will be shown as Companys on the admin page. So this can be fixed by having the correct plural forms of the model names.

So inorder to fix this, when the verbose_name_plural is set, we can derive the correct suffix that needs to be added from the verbose_name (ex: 's', 'es', or 'ies'). Let me know if I am wrong anywhere.
(This is my first ticket, so apologies if anything doesn’t meet the standards. :) )

I'm not sure to understand. When the default pluralization is not right, then you have to set verbose_name_plural in the model definition to provide the proper plural yourself and all is good, isn't it?

Hello Sanjeev, thank you for this ticket. As Claude says, the model name pluralization can be customized using verbose_name_plural.

Because of that, and since the goal of this issue tracker is to track issues about Django itself, I'll be closing this ticket as invalid following the ​ticket triaging process. If you find out that this is indeed a bug in Django, please re-open with the specific details and please be sure to include a small Django project to reproduce or a failing test case.
