Not just any forum, the Bethsoft forums, aka, the Bethesda Softworks Forums.

It's an employee of Bethesda, so what he says applies. I am staff on a Fandom website. I am not a Fandom employee. Equally, if the guy who cleans the toilets at Bethesda studios says that Tiber Septim was a lesbian, the fact he is employed by Bethesda does not make it canon. The same can be said for the guy who does marketing, or logistics, or coding. There is no one single authority.

Bethesda has stayed consistently well, well clear of defining what is and is not canon. There is certainly no offical canon, just as your moderator friend goes on to say.
