Description
The current sentence regarding verbose_name is:
"It’s a good idea to add translations for the field names and table names, too. This means writing explicit verbose_name and verbose_name_plural options in the Meta class, though:"
This could be changed like this:
"Field names and table names must be marked for translation otherwise they will not be translated in the admin interface. This means writing explicit verbose_name and verbose_name_plural options in the Meta class, though:"
