The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/fuzzystrmatch.html
Description:
While the documenation of the versions 9.5 and 9.6 states a maximum length
of 255 characters for the levenshtein algorithm's input, the documentation
of any previous version states a maximium of 255 bytes. I expect that this
hasn't change, but the documentation of older versions is wrong.

Yes, the older documentation was less correct.
