Hoiho - the noisy penguin

The yellow-eyed penguin (Megadyptes antipodes) is only found in New Zealand is one of the rarest of our penguins. They live and breed around the south-east coast of the South island, on Stewart island and in the sub-antarctic Auckland and Campbell islands. They are known to Maori as Hoiho

Proposed merge of Waitaha penguin into Yellow-eyed penguin

This section of text from the article Waitaha penguin piques my interest:

"A 2019 study recommended classifying the Waitaha penguin as M. a. waitaha, a subspecies of the extant yellow-eyed penguin.^[1] If this taxonomic revision is confirmed, then Megadyptes antipodes is native to mainland New Zealand after all."

The citation goes to a scientific journal from four years ago, which defines the the Waitaha penguin as a subspecies of yellow-eyed penguin. What kind of "confirmation" to we need as Wikipedia editors to perform this page merge? Or at the very least to update the lead of Waitaha penguin to use the scientific name Megadyptes antipodes waitaha? Is this 2019 journal article sufficient evidence?
