Hi there.
I was reading Django Documentation, specifically Models page:

Under "Using models" section, the second sentence reads:
"Do this by editing your settings file and changing the INSTALLED_APPS setting
to add the name of the module that contains your models.py."

Now, as "models.py" is a Python module, this statement is saying that you
should add the name of the module that contains the other module.
A Python module cannot contain a module. The word "module" here should be
replaced by "directory" or "package".

Thank you!
