The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/biblio.html
Description:

Ullmann's classic should be

[ull88]
Principles of Database and Knowledge-Base Systems. 
Jeffrey D. Ullman. Volume 1. Computer Science Press. 1988.

not

[ull88]
Principles of Database and Knowledge.
Base Systems. Jeffrey D. Ullman. Volume 1. Computer Science Press. 1988.

as Base Systems is not a subtitle

Nice catch, it's been this way since 9474dd7ed6988924 which was committed in
May 1999.  The book does actually have a subtitle though, which is "Classical
Database Systems". Fixed in the attached.

No fair, I only looked at the back of the spine, not at the front page, so
I missed the actual subtitle :P

nice work Daniel
