Talk:Dalek Emperor

One, Two or Three Emperors?

Now, we all know that the fourth, blue one is new, but what about the first three? (Davros was a Kaled and therefore not a true Dalek Emperor, merely a leader holding the title Emperor) There is no indication that any of them was killed off at any point, other than the one from Parting of Ways who were heavily implied to have been disintegrated by Rose. The golden globe emperor never died and the one in Evil of the Daleks was seen to still function, so one could wonder, are they the same? Quetzatoul 18:57, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Number of Dalek Emperors

The whole thing is really just speculation and no one can agree on how many there are, the number is changed by anyone who looks at the page. I'm going to remove it as just speculation, and if an admin decides it should still be there, then they can put it back. Masterpwn ☎ 02:04, April 29, 2014 (UTC)

Genesis of Evil

Should the golden dalek thing be here? I thought Genesis of Evil conflicted with the accepted origin story of the Daleks, so it was non-canon. Should we clarify this? CloneMarshalCommanderCody ☎ 04:24, August 4, 2014 (UTC)

On this wiki, Genesis of Evil is a valid source for in-universe articles, whether it contradicts other stories or not. Dalek stories have been contradicting each other throughout DW's history. We don't use contradictions or conflicting accounts as a means for determining whether a story is valid or not. The link I provided gives the wiki's guidelines on what stories are valid. Hope this clears things up. Shambala108 ☎ 04:36, August 4, 2014 (UTC)

Merge tag

Is there a reason why there is a tag requesting this page be merged with the Davros page? LauraBatham ☎ 04:21, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

Since no reason was given, I removed the tag. Shambala108 ☎ 04:26, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

I presume it was because Davros was the Emperor in Remembrance of the Daleks and Terror Firma. -- Saxon (✉️) 09:46, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

For context, the user that added it also moved Davros to Dagros and Dalek Sec to Dalek Second. So I don't think we should necessarily worry that much about there being in universe logic for the change. Najawin ☎ 10:02, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

Tabbed gallery?

Hi all. Just another discussion I'm spawning off the back of the recent {docpic} thread in which it was decided to do away with the fading slideshow in favour of tabbed galleries for pages such as The Doctor.

Just wondered if such a thing would be warranted here, to showcase the various Emperors from over the years? A working example of how it could look is here. Just thought it was worth asking. FractalDoctor ☎ 12:26, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

Hmmm. Titles with different holders are not something I explicitly had in mind in the closing post, but I'm not opposed if there's a consensus. Scrooge MacDuck ⊕ 14:12, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
