Given that Susan's own page is called Susan Foreman, I believe that this one should be too. -- Saxon 00:22, January 13, 2019 (UTC)

I'm rather of the opinion that most of the content on this page should be moved to a page called something like Nyssa's TARDIS bedroom. That Susan used the same bedroom later used by Nyssa appears to be something determined by combining info from two different stories, Scribbles in Chalk (short story) and House (short story), with Vicki being the link in the chain. But Relative Dimensions (audio story) indicates that Susan's bedroom wasn't used by anyone after her. The bedroom seen in House (short story) and The Bodysnatchers (novel) is explicitly intended to be the one first seen being used by Nyssa in Snakedance, not so with the Susan's bedroom mentioned in Scribbles in Chalk (short story) and seen in Relative Dimensions (audio story).

That seems reasonable. Both pages can link to each other, and clarify that some sources suggest that Nyssa's bedroom was the same as Susan's. There's so much retconning here it can appear a little confusing.
