The list of all the queries

ROW level BEFORE INSERT and INSTEAD OF INSERT triggers that procedures refer to the row variable OLD

Query goal: Do not write incorrect code. Variable OLD: "Data type RECORD; variable holding the old database row for UPDATE/DELETE operations in row-level triggers. This variable is null in statement-level triggers and for INSERT operations." (PostgreSQL documentation)
Notes about the query: The Tr subquery has been created based on the subquery of INFORMATION_SCHEMA.triggers view. In the returned body of routine the query replaces each newline character with the line break (br) tag for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser.
Query type: Problem detection (Each row in the result could represent a flaw in the design)
Query reliability: High (Few or no false-positive results)
Query license: MIT License
Fixing suggestion: Such trigger procedure can use the variable NEW.
Data source: INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog
