 Django 1.7 adds a new `check` command for models that is called on the
 class.  As far as I can tell, this is only mentioned (briefly) in the
 documentation for the check framework.

 https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/topics/checks/#field-model-and-
 manager-checks

 If users create a model that has a method `check`, calling `manage.py
 check` will fail (because of the conflicting method names).

 {{{

 This is not mentioned in the release notes for Django 1.7 at all and
 worked fine in previous versions:
