Beginner's Guide to Memetic Kill Agents
If it has that, what's to say it won't have How to Turn Into a Creature Which Makes 682 Seem Like a Kitten in Comparison? And then a D-class reads it…
I'll try not to let things get that crazy, but I was considering adding a cookbook entry in an unknown language with diagrams showing how to prepare a creature resembling SCP-682 for human consumption. Doesn't seem to say how to kill it, just accounts for it being already dead. Decided not to add it because 682.
Don't worry, I'll be keeping an eye on this, and will remove over-the-top entries if people don't like them.
No, what I meant was: if it has something that can kill you from just reading a few words, it might (from the point of view of the O5) have something that, just from reading it, could turn a D-class into a Keter-level SCP. Also (from the point of view of the O5) it might contain a time-delayed memetic agent, in which case having it be read by a D-class won't protect the researchers from being affected. So it seems to me that having D-class read the thing wouldn't be a containment procedure the Foundation would adopt.
I hadn't thought of that… I know the Foundation is aware of and uses memetic kill agents, and this thing had a guide to them that made the mistake of including an example of one. So far it hasn't shown any other abnormal effects, so I'm not really sure how they would need to worry about it creating SCPs when it hasn't yet shown a capacity to do so.
Maybe I should add some way they analyzed that entry while omitting the memetic hazards, showing it to be an actual "guide" explaining memetic kill hazards but including one in its introduction?
Who says it was a mistake. Any good beginner's guide should have examples.
Research Assistant Greene managed only to read past the words "Chapter One" before suffering a grand mal seizure and dying of multiple brain aneurysms.
How do you know how far he read?
To be honest, I wasn't sure what to call it. Do you just pick a random number for this sort of thing, or is there some kind of pattern people follow when naming SCP supplement documents?
God knows I've made up random numbers myself for supplements. I'd just pick one; there isn't any reason for a redaction there.
Ah, ok. Went a head and picked a shorter number so I wouldn't forget it.
I see it as each number is another doccument. Meaning this is the 82nd document in the full archives. (What we read are just overviews. We aren't the research staff who can read all of those documents.)
But there is no canon.
Oh hey, what about letters? If this was "A", it would be the summary list, while subsequent letters/numbers might be whole transcriptions of documents?
Man, this thing's potentially infinite! I love the memetic kill agent book. Also, I would have thought something whose unlock code reads as "Ia Ia Ia…" would summon elder gods. :V
Are there any rules or limitations or themes for adding to this? Because I so have ideas.

Hey, if anyone wants to go for it, feel free to grab that combination.
It appears to be pretty limitless. Just keep the codes number-letter it seems.
You can do pretty much whatever theme you want as long as it isn't too solve-impossible-problems-y. Heck, you can use this as a means of discovering a new SCP, if you like, just as long as that idea doesn't get overused.
I like this. Nice selection of quirky-to-dangerous examples.
(Also, there's no point to adding that template, firewoven… the template is obvious from context.)
The template feels like an invitation to add stuff; which I suspect is the main point :p
Anyone who is actually Polish, please fix my internet translation. I used multiple resources at least, and this one looked the best.
First thing i did after getting accepted was fixing the polish name, it's correct now.
