typo

2018-11-25 Thread PG Doc comments form
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/storage-file-layout.html
Description:

I think I found a typo in the manuals in the below sentence. I have
highlighted the correction within double quotes (") and UPPERCASE text. Does
it sound right ?


URL: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/storage-file-layout.html

Typo: A table that has columns with potentially large entries will have an
associated TOAST table, which is used for out-of-line storage of field
values that are too large to keep in the table rows proper

Correction: A table that has columns with potentially large entries will
have an associated TOAST table, which is used for out-of-line storage of
field values that are too large to keep in the table rows "PROPERLY".

Thanks, committed.  I have fixed the docs to reflect your suggestion.

Are you sure that's right? To me the original wording of that sentence
seems to convey the message properly, and the update done does not?

Yeah, I just found this on the committers list and I disagree with the
change as well.

[... checking around ...]
Hm.  I have read the sentence and the surroundings a couple of times
before doing anything, and using an adverb looked clearer than the
adjective.  Is an adjective more appropriate than an adverb here because
it insists more on the fact that each row is involved?  Just trying to
grab the difference.
