+A lint check attribute was overruled by a `forbid` directive set as an
+attribute on an enclosing scope, or on the command line with the `-F` option.
+
+Example of erroneous code:
+
+```compile_fail
+#![forbid(non_snake_case)]
+
+#[allow(non_snake_case)]
+fn main() {
+    let MyNumber = 2; // error: allow(non_snake_case) overruled by outer
+                      // forbid(non_snake_case)
+}
+```
+
+The `forbid` lint setting makes code that fails the lint check result in a
+compilation-terminating error (like `deny`), but also prevents itself from
+being overridden by inner attributes.
+
+You can change `forbid` to `deny` (or use `-D` instead of `-F` if the `forbid`
+setting was given as a command-line option) to allow the inner lint check
+attribute:
+
+```
+#![deny(non_snake_case)]
+
+#[allow(non_snake_case)]
+fn main() {
+    let MyNumber = 2; // ok!
+}
+```
+
+Alternatively, edit the code to pass the lint check, and remove the overruled
+attribute:
+
+```
+#![forbid(non_snake_case)]
+
+fn main() {
+    let my_number = 2;
+}
+```
