How to tell if the zeropoints are calculated incorrectly (due to clouds or something else)?

I suspect that the low i-band points in the bottom right are due to clouds/bad zeropoints. This is a dwarf planet and bright enough that it has sufficient past observations that show the rotational light curve does not have such big jumps in magnitude.

Figure 6

The DP2 documentation mentions bad zeropoints could be caused by clouds, - Are there recommendations on how to flag/identify suspicious photometry in diaSources?
