Proposed Merge

There are both battle computer and Dalek Battle Computer articles. The bc article is about machine intelligence and only talks about the episode where its claimed that Daleks aren't organic at all, anymore. DBC talks about human-computer gestalts.

If you look at Ben Aaronovitch's novelisation of his story, the lone Renegade Dalek that the Doctor blows up with Nitro-9 has an internalised battle computer, which means that it would have to be the same thing as what The Dalek Book (and just about all those references that borrow from its Anatomy feature) calls a "war computer". --Nyktimos 06:03, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

I'd support a merge as long as it's clear that the computer referred to in Destiny of the Daleks is a machine-only system (unlike the Daleks themselves) and the computer in Remembrance of the Daleks is a type intended to overcome the problem faced their in a purely logical machine.
