Temporary tables and Write-Ahead Log

In create table documentation is not clear if temporary tables use the write-ahead log. Could you please add a sentence about that like in the unlogged tables?

The word “temporary” is communicating the entire first paragraph of what we
spell out in unlogged.
However, maybe I’d add to the end:
“Aside from the above, a temporary table behaves much like an unlogged
table - though a partitioned table consisting solely of temporary
partitions is allowed.”
