I misspoke somewhat when I stated that there's no policy. It's true that there's no tangible policy for the audio tables, but we do have a policy for the "featuring" field in infoboxes. "Featuring" is always for recurring characters, so any one-time character, no matter how "important", does not get included. I think this rule would apply as well to these tables.

In general, we don't list species in the "featuring" field; unnamed individuals of a species are listed only if the individual both has its own page and is a recurring character (which I would guess is pretty rare, but hey, I'm wrong all the time).

And I just have to point out that your original post and your follow-up express a desire for consistency, which was what I was aiming for when I suggested not listing too many characters per story.
