Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- Article says that the waterfall retreated upstream and disappeared over a few months, rather than just in February. A direct citation is also needed (the mention in the lead is ideal for hook eligibility). - Interesting:
QPQ: 
- Pending
Overall: 
An interesting and tragic article; I would like to see the hook issue cleared up, but otherwise the article looks great. SounderBruce 05:00, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Shannon1: Can you please confirm how many DYK nominations you have so far? If it's more than five, you need to provide a QPQ for this nomination to proceed. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 23:39, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
- Per the new tool I can confirm that Shannon1 has less than five nominations and thus does not need to do a QPQ. However, Shannon1 is currently on Wikibreak, so unless they return soon and address the issues, the nomination may have to be closed. Given that their userpage indicates a short wikibreak, the nomination may be marked for closure if there is no response or activity by the 22nd (one week after this comment).

- Hi, I'm sorry I've been off Wikipedia for a bit and also busy working on another article so I forgot about this nomination. I'll add the citations to the lead. Would it be better if we changed the wording to "collapsed in February 2020 and disappeared within a few months"? Thank you, Shannon [ Talk ] 17:55, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- @SounderBruce: Is this ready to be approved? If not, what else needs to be done? Z1720 (talk) 02:28, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Shannon1: Please create an ALT hook that conforms with the statements in the article and source. The proposed wording in your comment should be fine. SounderBruce 04:28, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
