The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/16/ddl-partitioning.html
Description:

I would like the documentation to explain how to use Hash partitions. It
says one needs to provide a modulus and remainder, but the exact syntax is
not stated in the relevant documentation page 5.11

All that is documented with CREATE TABLE:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-createtable.html

"How to use" is material for a tutorial rather than for the documentation.

I see we also had a similar complaint back in May [1].
