[[David Campbell]], [[Samantha Briggs]], [[Marco Polo]], [[Bret Vyon]] and other, more obscure characters, like ones from "[[The Keys of Marinus]]", have now gotten upgraded to single adventure companions of their respective Doctors. can we get a consensus for/against this? to me it really does seem like stretching the definition of companion (and beyond) its utmost limits.--[[Special:Contributions/24.61.10.36|24.61.10.36]]<sup>[[User talk:24.61.10.36#top|talk to me]]</sup> 22:41, January 30, 2012 (UTC)

::I have already suggested to [[User:Tangerineduel]] that with the random individuals being added to the categories of companions, allies and enemies, we completely strip the categories so we have nothing in them and we have a discussion, per Doctor, of who is a companion, ally and enemy. It will be time-taking, but we may finally get somewhere. [[User:Mini-mitch|MM]]/<small>[[User talk:Mini-mitch|Want to talk?]]</small> 09:45, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

==Archivist's notes==
This was part of a series of threads in late 2011/early 2012 which eventually resulted in the dramatic thinning of companion categories and the complete elimination of "x Doctor allies" and "x Doctor enemies" categories.
