Definitions

Editors have used "voice actor" in two different and inconsistent ways on this Wiki.

  • The actor who dubs in the voice of a character played by another actor or by a prop. Example: John Leeson voicing K-9 or Nicholas Briggs voicing the Daleks.
  • The actor who played a role in an audio play previously played by another actor on television, etc. Example: davidbailey (his preferred spelling, BTW) as the Celestial Toymaker, a role originated by Michael Gough or most of the cast of the webcast version of "Shada".

Which one, guys? --204.167.92.26talk to me 00:27, May 1, 2012 (UTC)
