If the page you are on "looks fine," it is most likely (but not certainly) because its theme is overriding the SCP Wiki's default Sigma-10 theme. If you were to then navigate to a Sigma-10 page, such as the Front Page, it would likely appear broken.
Alternatively, if you know for sure that Sigma-10 is loading, the error is most likely mistakenly appearing because you switched the Sigma-10 theme to a different theme using the ThemePreviewer module or another similar feature. If this is the case, and you are the author of the page, add the following code to it to remove the warning:
[[module css]]
#top-bar .ios-cache-issue-notification {
display: none !important;
}
[[/module]]

Yikes, it has been a minute since I last posted something to the wiki that wasn't on a deletions page. Anyway, this was an idea I had ruminating for a bit now that I finally got the spark of inspiration to knock out.
Special thanks to A Random Day,
Naepic,
Captain Kirby,
DrBleep, and
TheMightyMcB for their feedback.
Hope you enjoy it.

Ahaa, this was interesting! I actually didn't know about this issue. I don't know whether this was intentional or not but the description of the towns was very cute! It paints a pretty picture.
That last footnote made everything come together quite nicely. Enjoyed it overall, neat little concept!
I originally had a little more after that point, but CK pointed out that it was really the best note to end on. It was good advice.
The first thing that came to me was the Paper Towns novel. Overall, this is a very nice idea that makes you wonder. +1

Ha! I thought that might be the case. Hence the title of "With Apologies to John Green"
"hah ah hah h ah paper twns get it its funny because paper towns!!!1!!!!! and it's towns,., made out of paper!!! i'm the master of comedy"
That's what this article is screaming at me. No-vote, because I'm very conflicted on this.

Kind of rude, but okay.
Thank you for the feedback.

This is an incredibly minor nitpick on an otherwise good SCP, but aren't humanoid SCPs basically always Euclid or higher by the simple nature of needing to be fed?
Heh. You are correct. I was focused on the towns themselves they kind of overshadowed the poor cartographer. Edit made.
Ahhhh I goddamned love this.
Clever, punchy, and easy upvote. Love the title too.
I have no idea who John Green is, but this was still a good read.
Only real criticism I have is that I don't exactly see the point of including MTF Iota-10 ("Damn Feds") in the archived containment procedures. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure they specialize in going undercover to collect anomalous evidence or information. What's described in the article seems to just be basic sample collection, which I don't think requires 2 different MTFs to be called in.
Overall though, gotta love a good copyright trap joke, +1
John Green is an American novelist who wrote a book titled "Paper Towns"
With respect to the use of Iota-10 here, them and the Red Herrings aren't the ones who are collecting the samples. The line is:
Upon discovery of a new instance of SCP-6560, MTF Gamma-5 ("Red Herrings") and MTF Iota-10 ("Damn Feds") are to be dispatched to establish a secure perimeter of the location as well as detain any witnesses.
The logic here was that the two combined would provide substantial suppression of dissemination as to the existence of the instance ala Gamma-5 and allow for early detection and suppression of local/state interference ala Iota-10. I suppose one could argue that you could achieve the same result with just Gamma-5, but the Foundation does tend to err on the side of caution, no?
Still, thank you for the upvote. Glad you enjoyed the piece.
Excellently done, as always Conwell. +1
