Deletion

Opposed after edits: I have significantly added to the article to bring this more into line with the Waterfalls WikiProject. The individual who originally posted the article appears to have created several similar articles on other falls in North Carolina. As I am able, I will bring those into the project as well. North Carolina has hundreds of waterfalls that could be considered significant.

As for "significance", well... one man's gushing cascade is another man's trickle. Much like estimates of falls height is difficult (as there's no real definition as to when a falls begins and ends), it's also difficult to say whether a falls is significant or not (especially when the original poster underestimated the height by at least a third). This may be an issue for the Waterfalls WikiProject to address. 5minutes (talk) 19:54, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I like the improvements you made to the page. This waterfall is indeed notable, and I would oppose deletion. I glanced at some other waterfall articles, and they all look great, so keep up the good work. Danski14^(talk) 21:05, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, thanks, I'm the one who created this article but didn't have time to go into great detail. It's a significant falls by many means. I'm not sure the proper way to cite it, but see page 157, where it receives a full and prominent listing. It's mentioned in tourism guides to Madison County, too. I'm not even sure if I'm editing this "talk" page correctly. Oh well - here it is! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wncoutdoors (talk • contribs) 00:56, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
