@ -240,6 +240,13 @@ Django will convert it to Unicode when it needs to.
Choosing between ``__str__()`` and ``__unicode__()``
----------------------------------------------------
.. note::
If you are on Python 3, you can skip this section because you'll always
create ``__str__()`` rather than ``__unicode__()``. If you'd like
compatibility with Python 2, you can decorate your model class with
:func:`~django.utils.encoding.python_2_unicode_compatible`.
One consequence of using Unicode by default is that you have to take some care
when printing data from the model.
