    Description

      Description

      We have seen some cases in which people stored their data in the admin database. Would it be possible to warn people not to do that in the MongoDB manual?

      Scope of changes

      • We might add a simple blurb to the production notes warning against using the admin database for any data, and to basically let Mongo handle the admin database.
      • Investigate other pages to potentially add this simple blurb.
