+Using ``F()`` to sort null values
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Use ``F()`` and the ``nulls_first`` or ``nulls_last`` keyword argument to
+:meth:`.Expression.asc` or :meth:`~.Expression.desc` to control the ordering of
+a field's null values. By default, the ordering depends on your database.
+
+For example, to sort companies that haven't been contacted (``last_contacted``
+is null) after companies that have been contacted::
+
+    from django.db.models import F
+    Company.object.order_by(F('last_contacted').desc(nulls_last=True))
