* According to this [[http://www.1up.com/do/feature?pager.offset=1&cId=3172364 interview]] with ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'''s staff, all the entries in the ''VideoGame/{{Persona}}'' series ''do'' in fact take place in the same verse.
** Related to that, an interview with Atlus in P4's [=DoubleJump=] guide confirms that the blue butterflies in ''{{Persona 3}}'' and ''4'' are supposed to be Philemon.

* 2E ''MutantsAndMasterminds'' had [[http://www.atomicthinktank.com/viewforum.php?f=18 a forum]] for system developer Steve Kenson to answer the questions of the players although he often answered questions indicating that a particular ruling was only his opinion in his games.

* ''Webcomic/MSFHigh'': There are no incubus in the msfhigh universe and there never will be. This is the only known race to be directly stated not to exist in the MSFHigh universe. Though it is for good reason.

* Dan Norton, the art director of ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Thundercats 2011}} [=ThunderCats (2011)=]]]'' set up a [[http://crewofomens.tumblr.com/ Crew of Omens blog]] to answer fan questions and also uses [[http://dingo107.deviantart.com/ deviantArt]], to post concept art and model sheets, frequently posting fan art on the blog, including both Yaoi and FetishFuel art.

* The Exile in ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic 2'' is canonically female, which caused an outcry among fans, since the Handmaiden romance was far more interesting and rounded than the alternative. This was ''likely'' in response to the angry response in making Revan canonically male, despite Female Revan fanfic and fan art having a 5:1 ratio over male Revans. Making the whole thing clear as mud is that while Leland Chee (the canon keeper of the Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse) declared the canonical genders of male Revan and female Exile, WordOfGod from Creator/BioWare and Obsidian was the ''opposite.'' Obsidian's own trailer and promo art refer to Exile as "he" while David Gailder of [=BioWare=] went on fan boards and admitted he viewed the character of Revan as female, even writing an epilogue of sorts. For good or ill, it's the verdict from LucasArts that stands.

* LaurenFaust often provides supplementary details for ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' in her Website/DeviantArt page [[http://fyre-flye.deviantart.com/ seen here]]. As her role on the show is now only as consultant and script producer, she makes sure to note that the information she provides should not be considered canon.

* Another example in D&D comes from Keith Baker's presence on the official Dungeons and Dragons forums, where he goes by the handle [=HellCow=]. As creator of the {{Eberron}} Campaign Setting, his posts regarding the world of Eberron are largely taken as "Word of God" for the setting, though he purposefully makes sure that he is ambiguous enough that [=DMs=] can make their own choices on how they want their world to run.

* The writers for ''{{Exalted}}'' appear regularly on both the White Wolf forums and rpgnet and say a great deal...or, more often, offer a few tidbits for a forthcoming release while giggling and waving non-disclosure agreements. [[http://exalted.xi.co.nz/wiki/WriterQuotes Here]] and [[http://nobilis.me/quotes-exalted here]] are collections of said Words, the latter skewing more towards the current writing team.

* A strange example of this trope is ''Series/TwinPeaks'', as creator DavidLynch has stated that he does not support the identity of Laura Palmer's killer being [[spoiler:her father]], as he was a victim to ExecutiveMeddling, and wanted the mystery of the killer to go on for the entire series. He therefore claims that the killer could be anybody.

* Morikawa Jouji, a ''HajimeNoIppo'' alkotója megnevezi a legjobb három bokszolót a manga 361. fejezetében. A legerősebb bokszoló kétségkívül Takamura. A második Ricardo Martinez. Meglepő módon Miyatát nevezi meg a harmadik legjobbnak, és Ippot a nyolcadiknak.

* Following his split with Disney, ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' creator GregWeisman [[http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/faq/ has addressed]] many obscure questions otherwise unanswered by show material and is considered the authoritative source, to the point most fans do not consider the last season {{canon}}. The comic book moreover continues where the second season left off and completely ignores the third season.

* On JhonenVasquez's {{Facebook}} page is this little paragraph ''that can now be considered as canon'':

* In the ''{{Dragonlance}}'' series of books, it is rumored, debated, and shot down by a character, that Usha is Raistlin's daughter. The books never revealed the truth in certain terms however, and debate among readers raged for years until the authors, Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman answered the question definitively: [[spoiler:That she is not Raistlin's daughter.]]

* The Exile in ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic 2'' is canonically female, which caused an outcry among fans, since the Handmaiden romance was far more interesting and rounded than the alternative. This was ''likely'' in response to the angry response in making Revan canonically male, despite Female Revan fanfic and fan art having a 5:1 ratio over male Revans. Making the whole thing clear as mud is that while Leland Chee (the canon keeper of the Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse) declared the canonical genders of male Revan and female Exile, WordOfGod from BioWare and Obsidian was the ''opposite.'' Obsidian's own trailer and promo art refer to Exile as "he" while David Gailder of BioWare went on fan boards and admitted he viewed the character of Revan as female, even writing an epilogue of sorts. For good or ill, it's the verdict from LucasArts that stands.

* ''Franchise/{{Bionicle}}'' story writer Greg Farshtey kept a good relationship with the fan community. Not only did Greg provide Word of God for any question a fan might have had, but he sometimes distributed advance information and occasionally allowed fans to influence minor details, with "Sure Why Not"? Around the time the franchise ended, Greg wanted and give the fans more of a say in where the story should go, but his newborn child kept him from this, and later LEGO adopted a rule that forbid him from talking to fans online. However, they still let him occasionally use the official LEGO message boards to answer fan questions.

* A ''TigerAndBunny'' rendezője és forgatókönyvírója tucatnyi csemegével szolgált egyes eseményekről és szereplőkről, a triviálistól (Keith egy kicsit egészségfüggő és Antonio fél a magasságtól) a komolyig (Kotetsu Végzetes Hibája abból ered, hogy fél, hogy árt az embereknek, miután megszerezte az erejét, és [[spoiler: Maverick jobban belenyúlt Barnaby emlékeibe, mint ami a sorozatban látható]]). A ''Hős Pletyka Könyv'' még több információt ad -- a pizsamáiktól az első szerelmükön át a napi menetrendükig.

* Richard O'Brien has stated that it was actually Riff Raff, and not Dr. Frank N. Furter, who did most of the work on Rocky in ''TheRockyHorrorPictureShow''.

* Creator of the tragically short lived PushingDaisies Bryan Fuller reveled how he envisioned the show ending in a TV Guide interview.

* Nasu and the {{Nasuverse}}. Most fans chose to simply ignore Nasu's official statements since the [[FantasyKitchenSink Nasuverse]] is complex enough as it is. It also doesn't help that officially he isn't sure if the Forest of Einasshe thing in ''{{Tsukihime}}'' is canon or just [[RuleOfCool cool fluff.]]

* Kajishima Masaki, a ''TenchiMuyo'' eredeti alkotója és a ''Ryo-Oh-Ki'' {{OVA}}k ((Japánban még Kajishima kánonnak is hívják őket), nagyon szeret tie-in regényeket kiadni, ténykönyveket, doujinshiket és egyéb termékeket, ahol alaposabban elmagyarázza a művet -- főleg azért, mert akkor még nem tudta finanszírozni a következő sorozatot, de még volt mondanivalója. Ezeket a műveket általában kánonként kezelik a japán rajongók, de nyugaton nem jelennek meg. Alapvetően ezek Kajishima kánonjai ha/amikor a jogtulajdonos (AIC) még több OVA-nak enged szabad utat. Addig abban a szokatlan helyzetben marad, hogy lényegében a saját animéjéről kell fanficeket írnia.

* The creators of ''HeyArnold!'' have purportedly stated that Helga's mother is an alcoholic, although they knew that saying so directly would never fly on Nickelodeon. Incidentally, they said in the same interview that Arnold's last name is [[spoiler:Shortman]].

* There was some speculation that the FatherTed character Father Noel Furlong, a youth group leader, was having sex with the young people in his charge and was therefore a comment on paedophillia in the Catholic Church. (The fact that the character was played by GrahamNorton helped this view). The creators have confirmed that the character is actually asexual and the joke is that the character is too enthusiastic about the quite normal behaviour of the young people.
* A strange example of this trope is ''TwinPeaks'', as creator DavidLynch has stated that he does not support the identity of Laura Palmer's killer being [[spoiler:her father]], as he was a victim to ExecutiveMeddling, and wanted the mystery of the killer to go on for the entire series. He therefore claims that the killer could be anybody.

** Since ''Film/TheAvengers'' has hit the theaters this situation can be solved: [[spoiler:Although there is a lot of tension in the beginning and everybody treads very carefully around the Hulk, he is part of the team and drives into the sunset with Tony Stark.]]

* DwayneMcDuffie, creator of ''StaticShock'', has stated [[http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?t=226749&page=5 here]] that Richie, Static's sidekick and best friend, is in fact [[WordofGay gay]], as is his comic book counterpart. When asked if Static knew, he replied "Not yet."

* Kanzaka Hajime, az eredeti ''{{Slayers}}'' regények írója, és az anime fő írója gyakran válaszol és erősít meg kérdéseket a sorozatbeli fantázia elemek működéséről, vagy arról, hogy ki kicsoda vagy micsoda.

* ''ShadowOfTheColossus'' featured sixteen colossi that are not named in-game. Eventually names started to pop-up with sources claiming to be from either Dengeki or Famitsu, which are usually Word Of God sources for Japanese games. Fumito Ueda eventually stated in the official artbook that none of the colossi have names -- only nicknames given by the staff during development.

* Amikor ''KrazyKat'', nevű karakterének neméről kérdezték, George Herriman [[http://stevestiles.com/krazy.htm a következőket mondta]]:

* Stuart Slade, author of ''TheSalvationWar'', will answer any serious question about the logistics of his versions of Hell and Heaven and their relationship with our universe that isn't explicitly spelled out in the story itself. None of these are necessary to following the story, but they do make a great display of how much thought he puts into it.

* ''[[Manga/RanmaOneHalf Ranma 1/2]]'' has had RumikoTakahashi state that the Jusenkyo Nanniichuan (Spring of Drowned Man) will cure Ranma and the other cursed men. It's possible that this clarification would never have needed to have been made, if not for an early plot hole (the Saotomes not getting cured right there and then, and then following the guide to the Joketsuzoku) that then developed a {{Fanon}} theory of its own, and, worse still, a villainous character returning with an extra curse having been "merged" into his original one.

* [[RaveMaster Hiro Mashima]] has been providing Del Rey with official translations for the names of the characters in ''Manga/FairyTail'' to avoid [[SpellMyNameWithAnS disputes over what the characters' names should be spelled as]]. Apparently, though, the names guessed up for the scanlations before Del Rey provided the actual translations are just cooler.

-->"I'm several hundred years aware of some of you wanting more [[WesternAnimation/InvaderZim ZIM]] or [[JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac JTHM]], and I think it's very flattering that you'd like that old stuff of mine so much, but exercise some restraint and refrain from screaming about that, please. It's 2009, guys. [[OhCrap ZIM crashed while on routine surveillance and burned to death in terrible pain.]]"
