 ### Fixed
 
 - [#594](https://github.com/paper-trail-gem/paper_trail/issues/594) -
-  A long-standing issue with reification of STI subclasses
+  A rare issue with reification of STI subclasses, affecting only PT-AT users
+  who have a model with mutliple associations, whose foreign keys are named the
+  same, and whose foreign models are STI with the same parent class. This fix
+  requires a schema change. See [docs section 4.b.1 The optional `item_subtype`
+  column](https://github.com/paper-trail-gem/paper_trail#4b-associations) for
+  instructions.

+#### 4.b.1 The optional `item_subtype` column
+
+As of PT 10, users may add an `item_subtype` column to their `versions` table.
+When storing versions for STI models, rails stores the base class in `item_type`
+(that's just how polymorphic associations like `item` work) In addition, PT will
+now store the subclass in `item_subtype`. If this column is present PT-AT will
+use it to fix a rare issue with reification of STI subclasses.
+
+```ruby
+add_column :versions, :item_subtype, null: true
+```
+
+So, if you use PT-AT and STI, the addition of this colulmn is recommended.
