As nifty as this is, there's nothing in the article to make it an SCP object. I suggest a summary of this be added to the log of anomalous items, this piece itself redesignated a Foundation tale, and the article be rewritten to highlight the real SCP object it's trying so hard to "hint" at; that is, the "unknown tool" used to remove the people from the images.

Downvoted, because articles are for SCP objects. Stories go in the tales section, and if you must blur the line, it's best to err toward the proper section. As a Tale, this would be pretty good.

Too little

I agree. I read this over and I'm left feeling like the item is less important than the notes. As a tale it would have left a better impression.

I'm sorry if this counts as necroposting, but this just makes me laugh considering the modern expectations for an SCP are the exact opposite of what this comment is trying to say. Not trying to be rude or anything, just pointing it out.

Interesting story, but not quite an SCP.

The idea of larger non SCP related files would be nice.

One Agatha limit gets me. Downvote.

Although I enjoy this article and the story behind it, the point still stands that the diary is not an SCP. The scissors that supposedly erased the woman, however, are. You should place more emphasis on the scissors, or maybe have them appear in a picture in the diary. Still, upvoted.

I would find this better suited for a tale or story, not an SCP. It doesn't quite seem truly anomalous.

Totally agreed. Foundation Tale. "Be on the lookout for the scissors, or scissoroid object, which removed the woman from existence."

ONE MOOOOORE THING.

That last picture? Yeah. That's gonna have to be 1) formatted to fit in the article properly, and 2) given more of a justification for existing at all. "There was a vague imprint of something kinda scissory" does not equal "we're pretty sure it looks approximately like this intricately detailed and highly unusual piece of equipment we just so magically happen to have a picture of lying around".

Honestly, you're better off just removing that pic entirely, assuming the article remains at all.

EDIT: This is the last thing, I swear. "it was found in a member of the Foundation's attic" is one of the absolute worst overplayed cliches we have on the wiki. Please, if you insist on leaving all this up, change that or just remove it.

To address the same issue from an in-universe perspective, no mundane object would be assigned SCP classification. This is not a SCP object.

As others have said, this isn't an SCP. I recommend re-writing it as a tale. It could work quite well that way.

Hmm, if the SCP was actually found, either some time later, or at the same time as diary, this'd have been awesomer. I upvoted it anyways - although this is an OTT item, it's a neatly written one.
