| Before getting started on details of the companions, I thought it would be worth getting some ideas from my fellow contributors on how we build this section. My personal preference is to have a table stating first story, last story, and actor/actress name. Something like this.
| |
| | |
| With a description of the character - how they meet the Doctor etc.

| | |
| Any thoughts? --[[User:Kazzab72|Kazzab72]] 07:51, 29 Mar 2005 (EST)

| :This touches back on the [[Tardis talk:Canon policy | Canon Policy]] discussion. If we adopt an all-inclusive or almost-all-inclusive canon policy, should we list other stories besides the television ones in which companions appear? Should the table also include the titles of New/Missing Adventure novels, [[Decalog]] short stories, and so on, that the companion appears in? In an article on Susan, for example, should the table also list "[[Dimensions in Time]]" under "Other Stories," since she appears in that adventure as well? Also, do we mention that [[Roberta Tovey]] played Susan in the [[Peter Cushing]] movies, or do we treat that Susan as a completely separate entry, particularly since, - as far as we know, - she never used the last name "Foreman?" (Heck, we're not even sure if that version of Susan had the last name "Who.")--[[User:Freethinker1of1|Freethinker1of1]] 09:27, 29 Mar 2005 (EST)

| | |
| Ah, and that also means I've probably missed off other companions from the New/Missing adventures.
| |
| | |
| Personally I'd suggest that we list non-television stories which the companions appear in, as we are listing those stories. However, the issue with regards to the Peter Cushing films gets more complicated. Are Ian and Barabara in [[Dr Who and The Daleks]] the same Ian and Barbara as in the series? If I remember rightly Barbara is refered to as one of Dr Who's grand-daughters. --[[User:Kazzab72|Kazzab72]] 09:43, 29 Mar 2005 (EST)

| My vote goes for including the novels and the audios in this list as well so for example in other stories for Susan I would include Legacy of the Daleks. However I think Susan, Ian and Barbara from the movies should be treated as different characters, since they were the same in name only. On a side point was an continuity explanation for the movies in Head Games, I read it years and years ago and have a vague recollection that it tried to use the Land of Fiction to incorporate them into the more established canon.

| | |
| I would also change the list of companions to include Bernice, Chris, Roz, Sam, etc --[[User:Amxitsa|Amxitsa]] 12:42, 29 Mar 2005 (EST)

| ==Organization==
| |
| Should we organize the companions, first into TV, Comic etc. and then by which Doctor they were with?--[[User:GingerM|GingerM]] 20:27, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
| |
| :Also what if people appear in more than one context e.g. comic, tv etc. Should they be in '''a)''' the first thing they were published / televised in,
| |
| '''b)''' the first thing they appeared in in their own timeline chronologically, '''c)'''the thing they appeared most in?, or '''D)''' they thing they are best known / most recognized as being in?--[[User:GingerM|GingerM]] 16:04, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

| | |
| Do you mean divide the page into two categories, one listing the companions by media type, and the second listing them by Doctor? The present format seems to work fine, and listing companions by Doctor can be problematic, as some, like Ben and Polly or Sarah Jane Smith, and especially the Brigadier, were associated with more than one Doctor.

| *If you look at the way wikipedia have organised their companions, i think it looks better.--[[User:GingerM|GingerM]] 14:45, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)

| ==First/ last appearances==
| |
| I have added the first and last appearances of the comapnions in the television series, using only there appearances in the television series.
| |
| I checked most of the links, but some may lead to disambig pages so please check.

| ==Companion Table==
| |
| I was thinking about changing the current list to a table form - I've put an example of this [[User talk:Jack's the man/classic series|here]]. [[User:Jack's the man|Jack's]] [[User talk:Jack's the man|the]] [[Special:Contributions/Jack's the man|man]] - 10:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

| == Rosita & Jackson Lake ==
| |
| | |
| Moved to "Disputed Companions", since a lot of fans will dispute the companion status of two one-off characters. I also added River Song, as some consider her one and many not. --[[User:Golden Monkey|Golden Monkey]] 21:53, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

| ==Astrid?==
| |
| | |
| Can i ask why Astrid is under Disputed Companions, whilst Christina, Adelaide and Wilfred are under Tenth Doctor Companions? If this is the case shouldn't Astrid be in there too?--[[User:Tomblacky|Tomblacky]] 15:37, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
| |
| * I think it has to do with the fact that the BBC is explicitly describing those three as companions for the final specials, whereas Astrid was listed as a guest star. The same would hold true if Donna had not come back. I think the list is a bit overdone - the two K-9s shouldn't be listed under Tenth Doctor because they acted as companions to Sarah Jane and if you include K9 IV based on Journey's End then we need to include Gwen Cooper, Ianto, etc., so I removed those. I do think it's OK to leave Christina, Adelaide and Wilfred where they are for now because we don't know how the final 3 specials will play out. For all we know those three could be slated to return for the finale, and the jury is out as to whether Christina might return when Matt Smith takes over (or Adelaide, for that matter). Once the finale airs, we should have a better handle on whether we should list them as full companions or "disputed" ones. I don't think Rosita should be listed here. The episode clearly describes her as Jackson's companion, not the Doctor's. [[User:23skidoo|23skidoo]] 01:33, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
