* "Mk I Dalek" is the fan name given to the first model of Dalek [[casing]]s ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'', [[COMIC]]: ''[[Genesis of Evil (comic story)|Genesis of Evil]]'') some of whom were also seen on the restored [[Skaro]] attending to the dying Davros in [[TV]]: ''[[The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)|The Magician's Apprentice]]''. They are distinguishable by their lack of slats. In this terminology, the "Mk II"  isthe one with a dish from ''[[The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)|The Dalek Invasion of Earth]]'' with the "Mk III" — tying back to the designation of the standard Dalek casing from ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'' — being for the one with slats first seen in ''[[The Chase (TV story)|The Chase]]'' .<ref>[http://www.projectdalek.co.uk/mainsite/index.php/dalek-plans Naming convention] by Project Dalek</ref> Within in-universe sources, however, there is little in-universe room for Davros's Mark I Travel Machine to correspond to the Daleks in ''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'', as the clear intent behind ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'' was that it took place prior to ''The Daleks''. The term of [[Dalek War Machine]] is instead given by ''[[Genesis of Evil (comic story)|Genesis of Evil]]'' as the original name of the casings seen in the first few Dalek television stories.
