Right, but it also wouldn't be a surprise if the rumours turn out to be false.

The current rumours are based on three facts: The anime has that TV slot only until September (that's not official, but apparently, the source is typically accurate), Ishida wrote in July that we should treat them well the next three months, and it's only possible to preorder 4 volumes with 12 episodes total. That can mean one-cour, it can also mean split-cour.

However, the pacing is weird for a one-cour show, since we will end up somewhere in the middle of the Aogiri arc. If they keep up this pacing (and according to episode summaries, they will keep this pacing at least until ep 10), episode 12 will be that episode. Imho, that's a really strange way to end the anime.

Moreover, the bundling of the episodes into volumes is strange, too (4 volumes à 3 eps, for one-cour anime, it's typically 6 volumes à 2 eps). Besides, the URL to the OP on the official website contains "OP1", so they at least consider the possibility to continue the anime. (The ED can only be found at YouTube, there exists no page for it on the official website.)

I don't want any episode numbers based on rumours in this wiki article. I want to wait until we get something reasonably official.
