::: But ''The Dalek Dictionary'' isn't a story and it isn't dabbed or categorised as such .I maintain that even if it were they're just mentioned so the "Characters" section would be empty. --[[User:Borisashton|Borisashton]] [[User talk:Borisashton|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 17:50, December 9, 2019 (UTC) | ::: But ''The Dalek Dictionary'' isn't a story and it isn't dabbed or categorised as such .I maintain that even if it were they're just mentioned so the "Characters" section would be empty. --[[User:Borisashton|Borisashton]] [[User talk:Borisashton|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 17:50, December 9, 2019 (UTC) | ||
:::: Again, whether it's a story or not, I maintain that it's ''useful'' to have a section that just succinctly lists the characters, separate from wider bodies of text that mention them. | |||
:::: And I dispute the statement that they're "just mentioned". ''The Dalek Dictionary'' isn't a story as such — but the entires on Yarveling, Zolfian and Drenz are short bios of the characters, not offhand mentions within the dialogue of others. They're as "featured" as a character can be a non-narrative medium. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 17:57, December 9, 2019 (UTC) | |||
