ReganX only wants to keep subjective descriptions and points of view out of the information pages, which is necessary but not depleting their friendship.

Personally, I've always felt that Merlin liked Arthur much more than the other way around. I'm also quite convinced that the show hinted at that multiple times. However, since it wasn't confirmed on the show, I can't add it to the information in the articles but only talk about it on blogs or in the forum.

The best way to describe such a thing like their friendship would be to state out that it grew over the years or that they grew closer towards the end, for example. When thinking it over, I have to agree with ReganX that maybe even "deep could be too much of a subjective point of view (when regarding my own impression, for example, that Merlin liked Arthur more than Arthur liked Merlin. I'm not so sure that their friendship was an equal one).

Another solution would be to insert quotes in which either one mentioned the level of their feelings or friendship. This would state out what was canon and evident on the show without using subjective descriptions.
