+The third argument to `get_collection` where `users` is specified is
+the model type. This is auto-generated from the model name, but you
+can control this using `__jsonapi_type_override__`.
+
+This is useful when you don't want hyphenated type names. For example,
+a model named `UserConfig` will have a generated type of `user-config`.
+You can change this declaratively on the model::
