As this thread is still open, I thought it would be worth bringing up another passage from the novelisation of The Evil of the Daleks regarding the Black Dalek from most of the John Peel novels. After the Doctor goes to Skaro, he comes across another Black Dalek:

"The Doctor stared at it with interest. The Black Dalek had been the second in command of the Dalek race. He had been instrumental in its destruction on Kembel. Was this the same one, meaning that they were earlier in time than the events of the Daleks’ masterplan? Or was this a new one, and was this later? He shrugged. He would find out soon enough."

- The Evil of the Daleks (novelisation)

Shortly after, he finds his answer:

"He noted several other Black Daleks. So this had to be later in time than the affair on Kembel. That had been about AD 4000."

- The Evil of the Daleks (novelisation)

This is the clearest link drawn between the Supreme Dalek in Master Plan and The Chase to the Black Dalek Leader from The Dalek Chronicles - also an "irreplaceable" second-in-command Black Dalek (who never was destroyed during the comic series). If the Dalek Prime and various Emperor pages are to be merged, should a similar merge take place between the separate Black Dalek Leader and Supreme Dalek (The Chase) pages? The Dalek Prime/Emperor isn't likely to have two "irreplaceable" Black Dalek second-in-commands after all.
