Design guidance aside, this is not a good article because it doesn't show how to fix the presented problem scenarios.

"This is not first normal form" - OK, how would you fix it?

"This is not second normal form" - OK, how would you fix it?

"This is neither second nor third normal form" - OK, how would you fix it?

If you're going to show problems, show solutions as well.

The rest is a big red flag list of falsehoods that programmers believe about names and addresses.
