SELECT
    pg_database.datname,

    FROM pg_database;

check size of each table

SELECT
   relname as "Table",

   pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(relid) - pg_relation_size(relid)) as "External Size"

Troubleshooting

sudo su postgres

psql

update pg_database set datistemplate=false where datname='template1';
drop database Template1;
create database template1 with owner=postgres encoding='UTF-8'
  lc_collate='en_US.utf8' lc_ctype='en_US.utf8' template template0;

update pg_database set datistemplate=true where datname='template1';

postgres=# create database template0 TEMPLATE postgres;
ERROR:  database "template0" already exists
postgres=# create database template1 TEMPLATE postgres;
CREATE DATABASE
postgres=#

another try:

UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = TRUE where datname = 'template0';
\c template0
UPDATE pg_database SET datistemplate = FALSE where datname = 'template1';
drop database template1;
create database template1 with template = template0 encoding = 'UNICODE'  LC_CTYPE = 'en_US.UTF-8' LC_COLLATE = 'C';
UPDATE pg_database SET datistemplate = TRUE where datname = 'template1';
\c template1
UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = FALSE where datname = 'template0';
