[edit] Companion?
The article states that she "is not generally considered a companion", but I wonder if that's really true. Who are these people "not generally" considering her so? As a matter of objective fact, she knew the secret of the TARDIS, entered it several times throughout the series, took a trip in it, appeared in half the stories of Series 1 and 2, directly faced Autons, Slitheen, Cybermen and Daleks, actively assisted the Doctor during regeneration, furthered the audience's understanding of travelling with the Doctor, and fiercely protected the secret of the Doctor when challenged. She even appeared in a Doctor Who Magazine comic strip. Sure, she may not be the "classic era" definition of a companion in that she doesn't regularly travel in the TARDIS, but, she had a more critical relationship with both the audience and the Doctor than someone like Vicki, Victoria, Dodo, or Stephen.
