Normally, the creator becomes the owner of the new database.
- A different owner may be specified by using the <option>OWNER</>
- clause (but only superusers may create databases on behalf of other users).
- To create a database owned by oneself, either superuser privilege
- or CREATEDB privilege is required. A superuser may create a database
- for another user, even if that user has no special privileges himself.
+ Superusers can create databases owned by other users using the
+ <option>OWNER</> clause. They can even create databases owned by
+ users with no special privileges. Non-superusers with CREATEDB
+ privilege can only create databases owned by themselves.
