Inaccurate non-corroborative source

"The song "Blackbird" by John Lennon and Paul McCartney was also inspired by the novel.[2]" This references a non-authoritative source that itself makes assumptions about the inspiration. The source claims that the Beatles used a line from a different work by Kahlil Gibran in a different song therefore they must have been inspired by Khalil while writing Blackbird. This is a logical fallacy. In addition the line they cite from the second work is only partly similar to the Beatles line.
