-    To use this field, setup the ``citext`` extension in PostgreSQL before the
-    first ``CreateModel`` migration operation using the
-    :class:`~django.contrib.postgres.operations.CITextExtension` operation. The
-    code to setup the extension is similar to the example for

+
+    Several fields that use the mixin are provided:
+
+.. class:: CICharField(**options)
+.. class:: CIEmailField(**options)
+.. class:: CITextField(**options)
+
+    These fields subclass :class:`~django.db.models.CharField`,

+    :class:`~django.db.models.TextField`, respectively.
+
+    ``max_length`` won't be enforced in the database since ``citext`` behaves
+    similar to PostgreSQL's ``text`` type.
