The page mentions that legacy of the daleks states that the beevers version of the master is a decayed Delgado.

2016's The Two Masters establishes them as separate incarnations?

how do we reconcile this?

Pratt

Someone else appears to have remarked on this, but there's been more discussion about this topic since elsewhere and things have changed. This says:

Note that Legacy of the Daleks makes it explicitly and unambiguously clear that the "crispy" version played by Pratt and Beevers is merely an injured Delgado — not a different incarnation. Consequently, the template {{Delgado}} refers to all appearances of the Master set between the novel The Dark Path and the final moments of The Keeper of Traken.

This isn’t exactly true. Firstly, Doorway to Hell contradicts this, so it is no longer "explicitly and unambiguously clear". Secondly, from what I understand from discussions, Legacy of the Daleks isn't actually super clear on this either, but I have not read it so I may be mistaken. Either way, {{Pratt}} now exists so this paragraph should be deleted.

As a separate note, I also suggest that the list of templates be rearranged in a less confusing order, perhaps alphabetically or more reasonably, chronologically for the order they appear on the actual page. Chubby Potato 06:09, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
