Hi.
I noticed that it seems to me a mistake in the sample code in the
document.
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/ddl-constraints.html#DDL-CONSTRAINTS-FK
I think it is a typo for user_id instead of author_id.
See bellow.
Best reghards,

Without the specification of the column, the foreign key would also
set
