Django doesn't support NoSQL databases, so I don't think that we should extend this FAQ. However I also agree that we shouldn't recommend django-nonreal in our docs. It looks that ​djongo is a better alternative but it's already mentioned in a wiki page and should stay there. I would suggest a small cleanup, e.g.:

diff --git a/docs/faq/models.txt b/docs/faq/models.txt
index 89bbbd1724..9c3951efa0 100644
