#22852 closed Bug (duplicate)
WHY: (admin.E013) The value of 'fields' cannot include the ManyToManyField 'make_types', because that field manually specifies a relationship model?

Description
Will any one tell me why checks.py throws this error if I've manually defined the M2M relation table using through?
What's the difference in auto created and manually defined models class?
What's the wrong is if we're adding parameters through and through_fields? Surely auto created model/table need a class and two fields. So, manually created model/table also has same thing!

No, I'm not asking question. Rather, I want to know is there any specific reason to throw Error if we've defined M2M relations manually. Whereas we're padding parameters through and through_fields?
I don't think there should be any exception throw if we're defining M2M manually.
Please fix!
