There's a large chunk of text in Ron's article under Relationships, which explains the directors' reasoning for making Ron and Kim a couple. I suspect it's all accurate. But, and correct me if I'm wrong, anything supposedly said by the show's crew would require a reference, which I notice there is not currently. So unless someone knows where to find the relevant interviews, we can't really use that. Which is why I assume it was chilling under the rough draft line until Soulgamer78 moved it up. I've started looking for the interview because I'm curious myself, frankly. - Dap00 19:19, June 15, 2013 (UTC)

First, move it back under Rough. Second, even if we have proper citations, they have to remain in non-POV meta-info areas. Third, if it belongs *anywhere*, it should be on the Kim and Ron's Relationship article.

Finally, YES, if there are no citations to be found, they should be relegated to the Talk page as un-sourced hearsay and speculation.

Have to agree with LR.

It was a "Blogging Baby" interview from early 2006. --Erased Paper (talk) 23:04, October 13, 2013 (UTC)
As said, certain it's true, but without a source *link*, it still falls into "possible hearsay". So. Got that link? --Love Robin (talk) 07:47, October 14, 2013 (UTC)
Not the original one, but it's the same text. parentdish.com/2006/01/13/kim-possibles-creators-speak-an-interview-with-mark-mccorkle-a/ --Erased Paper (talk) 18:02, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
Problem is, that source doesn't go into depth as to Kim and Ron as a couple("…Ending it with Kim and Ron getting together seemed right"), no where near the depth of what was being addressed in the article. We are not disputing that Kim and Ron ended up a couple by season4. That much is canon.
Finally, the removed text was written from a Real World perspective, and this wiki's Manual of Style is that of an In-Universe perspective, so there is no room for what directors say. Everything has to be written from within the show. --Love Robin (talk) 20:59, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
