Genocide

Genocide was the destruction or attempted destruction of either an entire species or specific group of people. It can be contrasted with murder, which involved the killing of individuals rather than entire populations.

The Doctor seemed to be vehemently opposed to genocide; his tenth incarnation claimed that, if one looked up the word "genocide" in a dictionary, they would see a picture of him with the caption "over my dead body" (TV: The Doctor's Daughter), while the eleventh insisted that genocide was never a solution, even in a seemingly endless war like that between the Sontarans and the Rutans. (GAME: The Gunpowder Plot) However, he himself resorted to it, intentionally or otherwise, on several occasions.

Human genocides

 * When Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart destroyed the Wenley Moor Silurian colony, the Third Doctor was disgusted by the act, considering it genocide. (TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians)
 * Bennett believed that he had wiped out the Didonians. However, at least two had survived. (TV: The Rescue)
 * Humans may have committed near-genocide against the Wirrn in Andromeda when they destroyed their Breeding Colonies. (TV: The Ark in Space)
 * The Fourth Doctor helped human scientists kill the last of the Pescaton by the application of high-frequency sound waves. The Pescatons had fled their dying homeworld in search of another planet with large areas of salt water that could support them. (AUDIO: Doctor Who and the Pescatons)
 * The Eleventh Doctor accused the pirate Solomon of genocide after finding out he ejected the Silurians on-board their Ark into space. (TV: Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)

Dalek genocides

 * As the Daleks believed in racial purity and their superiority, they were responsible for many acts of genocide during their history. Races they have destroyed include: Koral's species (PROSE: Prisoner of the Daleks) and Eve's species. (TV: The Mad Woman in the Attic)
 * The Daleks wiped out the last Mechonoids on Magella (although considering that the Mechonoids were robots and not technically a living species, whether this counts as genocide is debatable). (PROSE: Birth of a Legend)
 * Dalek Caan committed genocide by killing all the Dalek-humans when they refused to obey the Daleks. When the Doctor confronted him, he offered help as he had already seen one genocide and had no wish to cause another. (TV: Evolution of the Daleks)

Doctor genocides

 * The Fourth Doctor destroyed Sutekh, the last known Osirian, finishing the genocide of the Osirans. The Doctor even taunted Sutekh as he died in the "temporal trap", asking him how long Osirians live, before finally declaring "The time of the Osirans is long past. Go." (TV: Pyramids of Mars)
 * The Fourth Doctor killed Eldrad, the last Kastrian (TV: ''The Hand of Fear)
 * With Leela's help, the Fourth Doctor destroyed the last of the Fendahl. He dropped the remains of the Fendahl into a supernova to ensure their permanent destruction. (TV: Image of the Fendahl) However, this attempt appeared to have failed, as the Fendahl later managed to re-manifest in Kaldor City. (AUDIO: Checkmate)
 * The Fourth Doctor fulfilled a Time Lord's solemn duty by killing the King Vampire, the last of the Great Vampires and sole vampire survivor of the Vampire-Time Lord war. (TV: State of Decay)
 * When the Sixth Doctor was forced to wipe out the Vervoids to stop them killing the humans on Hyperion III, this was used against him in a Trial occurring in his own past. When the Valeyard accused the Doctor of genocide, the Doctor said that he had no other option. (TV: Terror of the Vervoids) When the Eighth Doctor travelled to the events of the trial and met his sixth incarnation, he dismissed the charge due to the artificial nature of the Vervoids' creation. (PROSE: The Eight Doctors) (However, the Tenth Doctor was shocked by the destruction of the Dalek-humans, another artificially-created species (TV: Evolution of the Daleks))
 * The Doctor committed double genocide when he destroyed the Time Lords and most of the Daleks at the end of the Last Great Time War. It was apparently Rassilon's Ultimate Sanction, which threatened the whole universe, that convinced him he had no other choice. (TV: The End of Time)
 * During the Dark Times, the Fledgling Empires all but wiped out the Racnoss to prevent their devouring of planets. The Tenth Doctor later made them extinct when he flooded a ship of surviving young within the Earth. He was unknowingly aided by, who ordered the destruction of the Webstar which resulted in the death of the Empress of the Racnoss. (TV: The Runaway Bride)
 * The Doctor accused his Meta-Crisis duplicate of genocide when he destroyed all the Daleks in the Medusa Cascade, along with their fleet and the Crucible. As he thought he was too dangerous to be left to his own devices, he left him in Pete's World with Rose Tyler so she could make him better as she did for the Ninth Doctor himself. (TV: Journey's End) It was later revealed that at least one Dalek Saucer, with three surviving Daleks on board, managed to escape, and they were able to rebuild their race using Progenitors. (TV: Victory of the Daleks)
 * The Saturnyns were wiped out, with the Eleventh Doctor's help, in their attempt to take over Earth and convert female humans into new mates for their males. The converts were killed in an explosion, leaving the males to die out. The last female, Rosanna Calvierri, offered herself as a last meal to them, after telling the Doctor she hoped that their extinction would haunt his conscience. (TV: The Vampires of Venice)

Other genocides

 * By the time of the Thousand Year War between the Kaleds and the Thals on Skaro, the Kaleds had wiped out the Dals and the Tharons, the two other sentient humanoid races who had evolved on the planet. (AUDIO: Purity)
 * The Caxtarid wiped out four indigenous sentient species on Kapteyn 5 after their conquest of the planet. (PROSE: The Room With No Doors)

Planned genocides

 * Rivesh Mantilax invented a genetic weapon that would allow him to destroy the entire Viperox race. The Tenth Doctor stopped him from using it, insisting that no one had the right to wipe out a whole species. However, he did modify the device to merely impede the Viperox, halting an attempted invasion of Earth and driving Lord Azlok and the aggressors back to Viperon. (TV: Dreamland)
 * The Shakri desired to destroy the human race, whom they considered "pests", but were stopped by the Eleventh Doctor. (TV: The Power of Three)

Behind the scenes

 * According to the Decide Your Destiny book, The Corinthian Project, the Dax were almost wiped out by the Daleks. However, because the novel has multiple possible endings, it's difficult to assert with certainty that the event ever occurred.
