This statement absolutely requires a citation to verify its content is factual and inarguable. In this case, there is an official source directly stating that Cloud and Tifa love each other, which is an oddity because it is rarely said outright if Cloud loves either woman, it is usually only implied or suggested. This very often happens with creation materials like the Ultimania guides, developer interviews, etc - these are not materials every person can access easily, so any information gleaned from them is to be sourced. Such a trait may not be broadly known and may not be self-evident, thus it requires a citation so visitors of the Wiki know the information is verifiable and factual. Citations are required when a character trait is deemed to be important or obscure enough that it warrants a specific source.

It is broadly stated in many sources that Cloud may possibly have romantic affections for either woman, and saying so while citing one or two specific instances is enough for the scope of our coverage. As such, bar a few which are direct and inarguable, we do not document every single instance that romantic affection is implied for one of the two. The Wiki takes a neutral stance on this subject because it has caused much edit warring in the past phrases such as 'they share an emotional night together' or 'they confirm their deep feelings' are subject to interpretation.
