Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/History of Ottawa Senators teams
per nom.  While the editor has done much good work on early hockey articles (hell, I gave him a barnstar for it), he has been pushing a determined POV that several unrelated clubs must be the same team by virtue of having the same nickname, to the degree that  violations have been made.  While the details of the dispute have been exhaustively listed on the appropriate pages,  ''does'' have a consistent policy:  teams that have demonstrated common ownership, players, recognition of records, nicknames, corporate structures and unbroken lineage of seasons played (such as the Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks, Edmonton Oilers) have unitary articles.  Those with ''no'' common ownership, ''no'' players in common, ''no'' recognition of records, ''no'' common corporate structure and breaks in continuity stretching over decades, such as the various Senators teams, don't.  If there are facts in this article pertaining to the individual teams, they should be in the individual articles
