Infobox image
I have re-added the image File:Davros.jpg to the infobox for this article. In the interest of preventing edit wars, the reason is explained here. Any replacement of this image with file:DavrosJE1.jpg or similar images will be reverted.
We have certain rules for infobox images, some of which you can read at Tardis:Guide to images. One of the rules is that the infobox image must be representative of the story/character/location, etc. In this particular case, Davros has appeared in more of the classic episodes than those of NuWho, so the image of the older version is more appropriate, as User:OttselSpy25 stated in his edit summary.
For similar examples, you can check out the articles for Ice Warrior and Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart.
The current image is the best possible image currently available, but it doesn't quite satisfy all our guidelines for infobox images. If someone uploads a more tightly cropped image of the classic era Davros, it can be posted here for consideration. Also, images of Davros from the current series (and series 4 of course) are allowed anywhere else on the page. Shambala108 ☎ 01:38, September 29, 2015 (UTC)
"Not been born yet"
Years ago, when I was a student at the Ottawa Child Study Centre, I had a cab mate who told me that the story of GENESIS OF THE DALEKS took place in the future and that Davros "hasn't been born yet."Glammazon ☎ 03:49, September 18, 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not entirely sure what your point is? But the dating of Skaro history relative to Earth history is a fraught point. There is a significant following for the idea that TV: The Dead Planet takes place in 1963, for example, which would necessarily place Genesis contemporary to the Middle-Ages, or thereabouts. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 10:07, September 18, 2020 (UTC)
