I totally agree that creators of fictional material are not a reliable source for their own notability in 99.9% of the cases, but I also believe that for uncontroversial information like character information creators are a source far more superior than fansites (who speculate) and newspaper articles and interviews (who can misunderstand and misinterpret).
I agree completely with this. As long as some credible independent sources exist for the major premise of the article, sourcing details from the originators is no different from sourcing minor details on a company from the company's website. Why would anyone have a problem with that, at least in general?
