Non-Canonical
1. not included within a canon or group of rules.
2. not belonging to the canon of Scripture.
Authorship is not the same in "non-canonical" works.
Using the Bible as an example...all of the texts are written by different or unkown authors and only thosed deemed by the Church at the time were accepted as "canon" - "of or relating to the books that are considered to be part of a religion's official text". The books left out were of multiple authors. The quote was just that, a quote that I missed attributing to its proper source. Only Tolkien can be canonical for his works. He was the sole author. Something "non-canonical" is outside (not belonging to) Tolkien as was the quote.

The source is non-canonical but the spirit seems accurate

Does Nimrodel count as a water spirit also?

Possible but his line by Tolkien is odd -

How do we interpret "represents the actual seasonal changes"
