5271	manage.py validate no longer accepts application name as an argument	Pesh Alto	Adrian Holovaty	"In the tutorial at http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial01/
under 'Activating Models', the following example command is given:

python manage.py validate polls — Checks for any errors in the construction of your models.

However, this appears to be out of date. When I run the example as:

{{{ python manage.py validate polls }}}

it says that it was given an extra parameter, and that validate takes no parameters.

If I instead run:

{{{ python manage.py validate }}}

it appears to work fine. The tutorial should be edited to remove the extra parameter.
