The above would better be reported to pgsql-www; perhaps the website
maintainers will notice it here, or perhaps they won't.  (But I've
cc'd that list, so you need not report it again.)

As for the second point, you can *either* subscribe to pgsql-bugs (and
email your report) or use the report form; you need not do both.  If
the website gives the wrong impression then it should be fixed.

I don't believe that your default was now().  It was probably more
like
	articleposted timestamp default 'now'
which is a thinko specifically warned against in the documentation.
