How We Research Waterfalls
We prioritize official land-manager pages, USGS and NOAA data, Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, local maps, and page-level photo audits. Waterfall image slots are not filled with unrelated signs, picnic areas, or generic landscape photos.
When a fact is unknown, the page should say so. Unknown height, flow, and trail distance are not converted into fake precision.
