WP:NACADEMIC states that 'once the facts establishing the passage of one or more of the notability criteria above have been verified through independent sources, non-independent sources, such as official institutional and professional sources, are widely accepted as reliable sourcing for routine, uncontroversial details.' Therefore once any one of the NACADEMIC criteria have been shown to be met through independent sources, the other claims in the article can be verified through non-independent sources. 'if an academic is notable under this guideline, his or her failure to meet either the General Notability Guideline or other subject-specific notability guidelines is irrelevant.'
