:These are 'one of companions'. Who are companions for a single story. We have decided as a community, as a wiki, to include these people as companions. We do not strictly follow who the BBC labels a companions and not. There is a lot of grey area here, so we decided to decide who is a companion ourselves, and not who the BBC says is one. That's the reason we have a lot of 'single adventure' companions. [[User:Mini-mitch|Mini-mitch]]\[[User talk:Mini-mitch|talk]] 11:25, May 2, 2011 (UTC) | :These are 'one of companions'.

Actually Mitch-mitch, the guy has a point. There are characters that I would class as companions based on the suggestion that Canton is. The examples presented by the above users are great example of this.----[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]]--<small>[[User talk:Skittles the hog|Talk]]</small> 11:48, May 2, 2011 (UTC) | Actually Mitch-mitch, the guy has a point.

Template:Companions of the Eleventh Doctor list Kazran, Abigail, and Canton as single-adventure companions. Can they really count? They only appeared in one story and were never referred to as companion by the BBC (unlike Astrid, Adelaide etc.).
By that logic, characters such as Richard Mace, Lieutenant Carstairs, Charles Dickens and at least one character from every story would count as a companion. TemporalSpleen 09:59, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

- These are 'one of companions'. Who are companions for a single story. We have decided as a community, as a wiki, to include these people as companions. We do not strictly follow who the BBC labels a companions and not. There is a lot of grey area here, so we decided to decide who is a companion ourselves, and not who the BBC says is one. That's the reason we have a lot of 'single adventure' companions. Mini-mitch\talk 11:25, May 2, 2011 (UTC)
