.. admonition:: Table name quoting for Oracle
In order to to meet the 30-char limitation Oracle has on table names,
and match the usual conventions for Oracle databases, Django may shorten
table names and turn them all-uppercase. To prevent such transformations,
use a quoted name as the value for ``db_table``::
db_table = '"name_left_in_lowercase"'
Such quoted names can also be used with Django's other supported database
backends; except for Oracle, however, the quotes have no effect. See the
:ref:`Oracle notes <oracle-notes>` for more details.
