 228. Many-to-many relationships between the same two tables
 3
 4In this example, a ``Person`` can have many friends, who are also ``Person``
 5objects. Friendship is a symmetrical relationship - if I am your friend, you
 6are my friend. Here, ``friends`` is an example of a symmetrical
 7``ManyToManyField``.
 8
 9A ``Person`` can also have many idols - but while I may idolize you, you may
10not think the same of me. Here, ``idols`` is an example of a non-symmetrical
11``ManyToManyField``. Only recursive ``ManyToManyField`` fields may be
12non-symmetrical, and they are symmetrical by default.
13
14This test validates that the many-to-many table is created using a mangled name
15if there is a name clash, and tests that symmetry is preserved where
16appropriate.
