What this is
A bunch of miscellaneous CSS 'improvements' that I, Croquembouche, use on a bunch of pages because I think it makes them easier to deal with.
The changes this component makes are bunch of really trivial modifications to ease the writing experience and to make documenting components/themes a bit easier (which I do a lot). It doesn't change anything about the page visually for the reader — the changes are for the writer.
I wouldn't expect translations of articles that use this component to also use this component, unless the translator likes it and would want to use it anyway.
This component probably won't conflict with other components or themes, and even if it does, it probably won't matter too much.
Usage
On any wiki:
[[include :scp-wiki:component:croqstyle]]
This component is designed to be used on other components. When using on another component, be sure to add this inside the component's [[iftags]] block, so that users of your component are not forced into also using Croqstyle.
Related components
Other personal styling components (which change just a couple things):
Personal styling themes (which are visual overhauls):
CSS changes
Reasonably-sized footnotes
Stops footnotes from being a million miles wide, so that you can actually read them.
.hovertip { max-width: 400px; }
Monospace edit/code
Makes the edit textbox monospace, and also changes all monospace text to Fira Code, the obviously superior monospace font.
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Fira+Code:wght@400;700&display=swap'); :root { --mono-font: "Fira Code", Cousine, monospace; } #edit-page-textarea, .code pre, .code p, .code, tt, .page-source { font-family: var(--mono-font); } .code pre * { white-space: pre; } .code *, .pre * { font-feature-settings: unset; }
Teletype backgrounds
Adds a light grey background to <tt> elements ({{text}}), so code snippets stand out more.
tt { background-color: var(--swatch-something-bhl-idk-will-fix-later, #f4f4f4); font-size: 85%; padding: 0.2em 0.4em; margin: 0; border-radius: 6px; }
No more bigfaces
Stops big pictures from appearing when you hover over someone's avatar image, because they're stupid and really annoying and you can just click on them if you want to see the big version.
.avatar-hover { display: none !important; }
Breaky breaky
Any text inside a div with class nobreak has line-wrapping happen between every letter.
.nobreak { word-break: break-all; }
Code colours
Add my terminal's code colours as variables. Maybe I'll change this to a more common terminal theme like Monokai or something at some point, but for now it's just my personal theme, which is derived from Tomorrow Night Eighties.
Also, adding the .terminal class to a fake code block as [[div class="code terminal"]] gives it a sort of pseudo-terminal look with a dark background. Doesn't work with [[code]], because Wikidot inserts a bunch of syntax highlighting that you can't change yourself without a bunch of CSS. Use it for non-[[code]] code snippets only.
Quick tool to colourise a 'standard' Wikidot component usage example with the above vars: link
:root { --c-bg: #393939; --c-syntax: #e0e0e0; --c-comment: #999999; --c-error: #f2777a; --c-value: #f99157; --c-symbol: #ffcc66; --c-string: #99cc99; --c-operator: #66cccc; --c-builtin: #70a7df; --c-keyword: #cc99cc; } .terminal, .terminal > .code { color: var(--c-syntax); background: var(--c-bg); border: 0.4rem solid var(--c-comment); border-radius: 1rem; }
Debug mode
Draw lines around anything inside .debug-mode. The colour of the lines is red but defers to CSS variable --debug-colour.
You can also add div.debug-info.over and div.debug-info.under inside an element to annotate the debug boxes — though you'll need to make sure to leave enough vertical space that the annotation doesn't overlap the thing above or below it.
…like this!
.debug-mode, .debug-mode *, .debug-mode *::before, .debug-mode *::after { outline: 1px solid var(--debug-colour, red); position: relative; } .debug-info { position: absolute; left: 50%; transform: translateX(-50%); font-family: 'Fira Code', monospace; font-size: 1rem; white-space: nowrap; } .debug-info.over { top: -2.5rem; } .debug-info.under { bottom: -2.5rem; } .debug-info p { margin: 0; }
Well SCP Community, our precious "peanut" turns 15 today meaning that we have been around way longer than most online communities could even dream of and longer than what our founders could have possibly imagined! It is incredible that a little poorly spelled and inconsistent 4chan post led us down the route that ended up with almost 7,000 SCP articles and thousands of other pages like tales, formats, art, and so forth. We have a vibrant community of writers, readers, and artists on the site as well as an incredible group of artists, content creators, and fans outside of the Wiki. So many people have been able to obtain enjoyment and entertainment by viewing or contributing to content on and off the site and it is truly a blessing to see where such a wonderful and passionate community can take us! I know that I am incredibly thankful for the experience I have received from the Wiki and the people I have been able to interact with who love it as much as I do. We have a rich history and an untold future that is bound to be flooded with creativity the likes of which the world has never seen. Thank you, SCP, and happy birthday, 173!

I've met some of my best friends here, both through the wiki and offshoots like SCPD. I'm eternally grateful for this community we've created around the shit statue.
— Elunerazim, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm thankful for a writing community that has had a meaningful impact on so many people, myself included.
— Alexander Roberts does not match any existing user name, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch

Thank you for giving me a place to put my wackass ideas and letting me explore my creative side in a community that enjoys and encourages myself and my work. Here's to another 15!
— PlaguePJP, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I haven’t been in the SCP community very long but so far it’s been an amazing experience. The members of the SCP Wiki have created THE most welcoming, supportive, and inclusive online community I have ever had the pleasure of joining.
— BattleblockB0ss, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I have enjoyed my stay in the SCP community, since I have not only been able to share my stories, but also to get to know different people. I'm glad to see how much this collaborative writing project has grown and sustained over time, reaching different parts of the world.
— Luis Gm, Chat Administrator of the SCP Wiki Spanish Branch
Without this site, I would probably have never been able to find my voice as a writer and, just for that, whether you are a fellow Staff member or a simple member, my gratitude toards you is enormous. Thank you.
— The Pighead, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
The opportunity to tell, to create and to see under new perspectives.
— Dr Aisenberg, Administrator for the SCP Wiki Italian Branch
I'm so grateful to the wiki and its userbase for how much I've grown in the last year, for all my ideas written, accepted and liked, for giving me the chance to help them as site staff. Y'all rock!
— Siddartha Alonne, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English and International Branches
Thank you for breathing the creativity I so desperately needed into my life.
— Ralliston, Junior Staff and Moderator for the SCP Wiki English and Polish Branches
You could hardly find a more creative community on the internet. Each day I am surprised by the dedication of our members and I am so very grateful for it.
— chamik, Administrator for the SCP Wiki Czech Branch
I'm thankful to the SCP community for providing a place to write stories that are less "literary" and more clinical in tone and feel, and for giving me interesting stories that have spurred mine imagination and taught me that even mere written words can induce a sense of horror. I'm thankful to INT in particular for giving me a place where I can practice my translating from multiple languages.
Above all else, however, I'm deeply thankful for the people I've met and friendships I've gotten to build during my time on INT. That community helped me get through some of the most difficult chapters of my life, and I will always fondly remember them and the times we had even long after I'm no longer active in the community.
— Nederbird, Administrator for the SCP Wiki Unofficial Nordic and Hungary Branches
I'm incredibly thankful for the friends I've made and the experiences I've had here that I could not in any other community.
— Yossipossi, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
"I am thankful for all the wonderful readers and reviewers I've worked with and seen helping authors in the community! Your patience and perseverance are inspiring."

I'm grateful to be in such an active, wholesome and happy community that has become a part of my daily life.

Having risen the universe on new Foundation, we, who had been nothing, have became everything.
— Salamander724, Administrator for the SCP Wiki Korean Branch

— HarryBlank, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm super thankful for all the friends I've made in this community, whether still in or they left for "greener pastures" (lol). This is a great community and despite if we realize it or not, we support each other like no other collaborative writing sites. Keep it up, team!!
— JackalRelated, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm grateful to the community for being so creative, welcoming, and long-lived!
— GremlinGroup, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am thankful for entire offsite community, especially our younger fans and content makers. You are the next generation of SCP, and I am so happy that as staff I get to help shape your first introduction to SCP, and watch you grow and learn to love this fandom as much as us veteran members do. Without the fanbase, our community would be nothing, and I am thankful for the fact I get to be the bridge between the two. Keep on making those OCs, drawings, practice SCP drafts, whatever it is, I'm cheering for you!
— UncertaintyCrossing, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am grateful for all the people I've impacted and impacted me in turn, and the opportunity to get invaluable feedback on my writing.
— LORDXVNV, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm super grateful for the community that has been built, for the friends I've made along the way, for the creativity on display, for the spirit of collaboration we have all had a part in sharing, and for the talent that has filled me with wonder time and again. Long live Peanut!
— Lt Flops, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm thankful of the SCP Wiki for the community that it provides. The way people are around here, how nice they are, and how good they are to newcomers is pretty nice to have around.
— basirskipreader, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
Happy 15 year anniversary everyone! It's been an honor to contribute to the nuttiest of all writing sites, and may this continue for yet another 15 years!
— EstrellaYoshte, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'll never forget reading down old Series 1, that night at 2 am in the middle of 2010. The fiction that grew from a throwaway creepypasta in a shithole corner of the internet has become a thriving, evolving juggernaut of communities on a global level. I wouldn't be the same person without meeting my friends and colleagues here. The power in this site is undeniable, and for better or for worse, I wouldn't trade a moment of the last 12 years away for anything.
— Dexanote, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am thankful for the opportunity to have contributed to something so massive and dynamic as the SCP Wiki, as well as having a chance to create my own little corner of the mythos.
— Jacob Conwell, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm so grateful to have been exposed to such a wide variety of people from all over. I've made great friends and learned so much that I wouldn't have otherwise known. My life has truly been improved by my friends here.
— LadyKatie, Moderator and Administrator for the SCP Wiki English and International Branches
God, I don't even know where to start. As someone who's always struggled socially, the SCP Wiki really allowed me to meet new people and socialize; this is where I found some of my closest friends, and it has allowed me to get through a pretty dark time in my life. Moreover, a lot of my growth as an individual (maturity, learning, growing, figuring shit out, etc.) has been largely due in part to me being introduced to SCP and becoming a member of the community.
Getting to know and talking to some key members of the community has been largely what's allowed me to evolve from being my previous shitty and annoying stereotypical teenager-self, to a more tolerable, slightly different type of shitty and annoying stereotypical teenager.
On another note, my introduction to SCPs in written-form was what really got me into reading & writing in general. Prior to that, I had no interest in such activities, and after finally finding a topic of writing I enjoyed, it gave me motivation to teach myself how to write, and has gotten me into reading; which has allowed me to immerse myself in the broad universe that is literature, and find enjoyment from it. From when I first read SCP-184 at 10-years-old where I was too scared to take a shower for two weeks to now, SCP has been a huge part of my life, and I hope to make it an even bigger part of my life in the future. Truly, it's been a wild ride.
— Hexick, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I’m thankful for all the stories, inspiration, and fascination this community has given me for so many years. I’ve been able to meet cool people and learn new things that I might never have been able to otherwise. I love SCP, and I hope to continue creating and assisting here for many years to come.
— Crow-Cat, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
Glad that we've made so far despite nothing!
— Osobist, Administrator for the SCP Wiki Russian Branch
I am grateful for the huge body of work that people have come up with around the concept of the SCP Foundation. I am even more thankful for the wonderful community that's grown up around these works, both on and off the wiki. And most of all, I'm grateful for the many wonderful friends and colleagues I've met through this website. Thank you all for making my life that much more special.
— DrEverettMann, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am eternally grateful for our community of people spanning across the globe; a community which has helped me through hard times, through school and work, but most importantly a community that continues to make me laugh and gives me great stories to read.
— SketchyTh0ughts, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am thankful for the readers and writers that have come together to form a welcoming and modern weird fiction community. We have all the best creativity of the pulp fiction days without the downsides.
— torcsandantlers, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm super grateful to be a part of this wonderful, supportive community.
— NebulousStar, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
Thanks everyone for still being active and creative after all this time! Be proud of this project and where we brought it together. Never stop bringing your ideas to life, and dream big.
— Dr Lekter, Administrator of the SCP Wiki International and French Branches
Forever proud of the OC makers and cosplayers, the writers and the artists, and anyone who has ever voiced their support for this community!
— Luxaiko, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
If someone had told me a year ago that I'd be able to write fiction and that people would actually read it, I'd have called them insane. This community, however, showed me that you can accomplish anything if you really want to, and for that I'll always and forever be thankful.
— hungrypossum, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I genuinely don't think I'd be where I am today if it wasn't for this community and the friends I've made because of it. It's helped me out of some real tough situations and I genuinely couldn't thank all of it enough.
— DrGooday, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I found the SCP-Wiki in the backend of a tough part of my life. I struggled a lot and wasn't sure where to go. Finding the wiki gave me motivation to do something, and finding that ability to get up and do a bit of writing was so important for getting me to keep going. I've only written a bit but I've made lots of friends on this small slice of the internet and for that I am so thankful. I try and help out now and then where I can and even though I don't write as often I still really enjoy being a part of something a bit bigger than me. So for helping me move past my dark place and turn into a me that I am happy with, I am thankful.
— R4_EX, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
For all its ups and downs, I've really valued the connections I've made here. It's been great to spend so much time with like-minded creatives and I really feel like I've made a lot of improvement to myself both as a writer and as a project head.
— Raddagher, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am thankful to have stumbled upon the wiki and the community. It's been an honor to be part of something as great as this, to have read so many incredible creations and to have created content that has been enjoyed by so many.
— Aftokrator, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
Happy birthday 173. Here's to another fifteen years of creepypasta and writing collaboration.
— stormbreath, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I’m thankful for all the upvotes. Also the amazing friends for life and the positive community and the incredible well of creativity. But mostly the upvotes.
— Rounderhouse, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I'm so happy for all the great friends I've made in the SCP community, and the opportunity to improve my writing!
— Doctor Fullham, Junior Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
i'm thankful for the great people in this community who make it a worthwhile way to spend my time
— gee0765, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
Participating in the SCP Foundation has changed my perspective on leadership and getting tasks done. Developing the mindset and resolve to complete Licensing work, Community Outreach projects, and moderate several aspects of the community required intense internal development and introspection, sometimes by force. This development, however, has improved me for the better, and I cannot thank the SCP Wiki enough, and our funny statue friend, for it.
— Elenee FishTruck, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
The best aspect of SCP-173 is that very number, and the possibility space that it implied - a universe filled to the brim with impossible things, and the thin line keeping us from them. We've spent fifteen years teasing out the full implications of those seven characters, and I look forward to fifteen more.
— Meserach, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
As the person who ended up removing 173's image, I've had a complex relationship with the article. On one hand, it's shown me just how much annoyance comes with being marketable, and lord knows I've had to toss my weight around as licensing staff to prevent copyright violations. On the other hand, this tiny article that barely takes up half of your desktop screen is responsible for me meeting some of my closest friends, and for convincing me to take the first step into a new career path. As much as I enjoy complaining about all the headaches this little peanut has given me, I do genuinely still love the article both for what it is and what it represents. 173 created an entire new subgenre among internet fiction, creating a community that spans over one hundred thousand members onsite, and many more offsite. It has inspired games both directly and indirectly, and has resulted in an entire site that hosts fiction from the scale of a brief sentence to an entire novella, all accessible for free to anyone who wishes to read them. 173 represents the culmination of a love of reading, and the desire to impart that love onto others. Above all, 173 represents the freedom to build upon each other's works, resulting in both extensive canons and fanworks that couldn't be possible without the generosity of moto42 putting the article under CC BY-SA 3.0.
Thank you, 173. And thank you, the community, for upholding the spirit of 173 for as long as you have.
— Naepic, Moderator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
Core to the idea of SCP is the belief that within almost any scenario, no matter how implausible or ridiculous, the human imagination can evoke a full range of emotions. I love being surprised how each and every writer uses their tools and experience to put their impossible-to-recreate spin on what presents as often very simple themes. Wonder is often in short supply, and the Wiki helps me find it almost every day.
— ManyMeats, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to be part of a such a community comprised of brilliant individuals; it is extraordinarily powerful how the unity behind this community-driven project managed to continuously improve it to be one of the greatest collections of bibliographic material that, in its collection, represent an exceptional hallmark of creativity, and fellowship.
It would be remiss not to cite the folks from our communities, regardless of branch, creed, or nationality; each, and every single one of you represent an incredibly courageous, and talented individual by taking your time to contribute to the development, and growth of this collection with everything you do; by creating content, by consuming the content, by engaging with the content, by engaging with each, and every single member of this community for reasons within, or without.
I am thankful for having the cognisance to recognise this once-in-a-generation opportunity; I am specially grateful for being capable of engaging with the content the SCP community makes; I am specially grateful for engaging with those who I consider dear friends from the SCP community.
Thank y'all.
— slashannemoo, Administrator of the SCP Wiki Lusophone and International Branches.
It's been incredible seeing this community grow over the years, and I hope we can continue to help it mature and become something even greater. I hope I can do my part in all that.
— aismallard, Administrator for the SCP Wiki English Branch
I am grateful for all the twisted stories and worlds our talented authors and artists have constructed for us to experience.
— LemonBee12, Operational Staff for the SCP Wiki English Branch
The SCP wiki and community have helped me discover who I truly am, and have given me a creative outlet and friends I wouldn't give up for the world. I hope it keeps doing so for whoever comes next, and I hope my contributions are, in some small way, a part of someone's journey.
