Problem details

Imagine if someone designed our post table (omitting certain columns) in the following way:

Superhero Name

Message

Posted on

Captain Temper

Has this posted yet?

Professor English

It should be Is not Has.

2012/07/07 07:17

Captain Temper

Capt. Temper

I hope you noticed the inconsistent superhero names in the first column (and captain's consistent lack of patience).

If we were to look at the first column, we are not sure which spelling is correct — Captain Temper or Capt. Temper. This is the kind of data redundancy that we would like to eliminate through normalization.
