Thoughts
Some points to consider:

Under "is the source verifiable", it says: True, but perhaps not entirely clear. Some might infer from this that it has to be available on line, but that is not the case. Books available only in print, or only in a library half a world away, or only in an online news site that requires a paid subscription, can also be verifiable sources.
 * In order for a source to be considered verifiable, other editors should be able to consult the source.

The next header question is: But this asks only half the question of WP:INDEPENDENT sources, that is, it asks about sources that are (or are not) independent of the subject, which is an important question to pose, but not the only one. The other aspect of independence is not asked, namely: Is the source independent of other sources used in the article? If a newspaper chain is under central control and 200 newspapers print versions of the same news event, that counts as one independent source.
 * Is the source independent of the subject?
