It seems a little weird that there are lists of licensed and other appearances and parodies and all, but no list ofactual appearances in the show, perhaps marking which ones are Dalek-centric stories (The Daleks,Genesis of the Daleks, etc.) and which are cameos or incidental appearances (like the dead one inThe Space Museum, or when all the Doctor's enemies arrive inThe Pandorica Opens)2601:1C2:5000:1472:BC41:413C:8064:C97E (talk)09:03, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The list is sort of present in the fictional history section but there is a navbox at the bottom (not visible in mobile view unfortunately) to all the TV appearances.GraemeLeggett (talk)11:34, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I was looking at the Non-Doctor Who Cameo appearances section, and found a lack of the time when a Dalek read out a question on The Big Fat Anniversary Quiz, shown on Channel 4 on the 2nd January 2015. Should we include this, becuase I think we should.WikiFan2456 (talk)19:22, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
