Well it can't be anything vague which can be interpreted multiple ways. The phrasing is clear. "Cameo" is something I would have to define, and people would debate over that. So that's not good wording.

Rule 3: A minimum of one (1) guest character is present in all episodes.
 * - It is not required that a guest character be played by the same guest actor. A guest character by definition is not a recurring character.

Either:
 * - ''Because such endings are not always related to multi-parters, characters introduced in the final scene of an episode do add to this count.
 * - The final character in the cast list should be discounted as a guest character, as a careful precaution. This is because sometimes that spot is given to characters only appearing in a cliffhanger, leading in to the next story.
 * - To qualify as a guest character, a character must have at least five (5) lines of dialogue. In other words, Donna Noble at the end of Doomsday is not a guest character, nor is Winston Churchill at the end of The Beast Below''.
