The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/18/storage-page-layout.html
Description:

> The second field contains the page checksum if -k are enabled.

-k -- This is enabled by default; use --no-data-checksums to disable
checksums.

Why does this need to be clarified?
