How to count if someone is just mentioned?[edit]

E.g. Tom Cruise is marked as one timer however three appearances is listed on his page.

See also Clint Eastwood, Frank Grimes, Jr., Tom Jones, Dolly Parton, The Rolling Stones, Tom Selleck, Arnold Schwarzenegger, George C. Scott, Beatrice Simmons, Britney Spears, The Who and probably others. --2F13 (talk) 13:20, November 28, 2016 (EST)

Tom Cruise only appeared once. His other "appearances" are mentions. Therefore, he didn't appear more than once on the show. If a character appears again, they should be recurring. My only exception is books. If a character appears in a screenshot in a book, that shouldn't count as an appearance as it's just a screenshot. In fact, I don't even think it should be listed on the page as an appearance. The Solar Dragon 15:08, November 28, 2016 (EST)
