Information cannot be taken from the publisher's Youtube or Twitter because information shouldn't be taken from anywhere other than the source itself so I'm actually allowing for more information to be entered from a legitimate source such as their website.

That is the source. Ed Boon's Twitter account and the game's Youtube page is the primary vehicle for information about the game to be released. If you do not consider that a valid source of information, than there should be nothing on that page, not a release date or any confirmed characters as there's nothing to actually confirm they're in the game. Nor should any information for to-be-released media, such as upcoming movies and television shows, yet a similar hard-line stance on its sources is not taken there.

How does it serve the database to incompletely represent any media, video game or otherwise, by arbitrarily considering certain sources as invalid?

But this is something of a moot point because there is no reason whatsoever why information can only come from the video game itself and the tie-in comic books.
