:::: 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)

::::: I just think a section on characters is a bit redundant as Zolfian, Yarveling and Drenz are mentioned in the lead, covered with what the ''Dictionary'' said about them in the "References" section and have a far more detailed coverage of their future appearances in the "Story notes" section.
::::: If anything were to change, I have thought about swapping the "Impact on ''Doctor Who''" section with the "References" section with some editing so the former has more prominence on the page since these early mentions of DWU concepts are likely what readers are looking for rather than the never-mentioned-again [[baz]] and also that as we don't cover this article as a story we aren't bound by that structure. --[[User:Borisashton|Borisashton]] [[User talk:Borisashton|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 18:14, December 9, 2019 (UTC)
