Also, if we don't merge the pages, we would still need to decide which of them to link to from Genesis of the Daleks (TV story).

If it were a more distinct character with a backstory that would conflict with that of Valyes, I would be against the merger, but the only actual part of the current article on Ferain distinct from the one on Valyes is this sentence:

"He later had Leela arrested after she used Castellan codes to investigate the House of Lungbarrow on Gallifrey. (PROSE: Lungbarrow)"

I haven't read Lungbarrow, but this suggests that his part is quite minor and does not conflict with anything we know about Valyes.
