This sounds like it might be related to a copy/paste issue that Ashesh
has sent me a patch for. Ashesh, can you check that please?

If I'm honest, I prefer the positive alert for the second message. I

That's from when the PG docs used to be in the same HTML Help file.
I've changed those links to point to the PostgreSQL website.
Unfortunately I don't see any way to point them to the actual help
