New description:

 The description text for the register decorator has a complex sentence
 that is badly worded and not proper english, meaning that the functions
 usage is not properly described.

 This page:
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/contrib/admin/]
 Please reword this sentence so it make sense:

   It is given one or more model classes to register with the ModelAdmin
 and an optional keyword argument site if you are not using the default
 AdminSite:

 Suggested changes - but I don't understand the sentence so the suggestion
 is just a guess:

 "It is given IF/FOR(?) one or more model classes to register with the
 ModelAdmin and an optional keyword argument site FULL STOP. If you are not
 using the default AdminSite:"
