This is the discussion related to the wiki page SCP-3295.
I actually quite like this one. It's a fine length; it's long enough to flesh out the anomaly, but it doesn't overstay it's welcome. Its an interesting concept. It's also a bit funny; the Foundation can contain 1000 world-ending terrors, but they can't contain smoking.

Pretty cool. Caught one error. In the first sentence of the description, "apart" should be "a part." When used as a single word it means "separate from" rather than "attached to." I'm going to see about doing the edit, but I figured I should mention it here first in case I screw it up somehow and accidentally blow up the whole damn thing.
Edit: Mission accomplished. I think.
I personally didn't like it, but since there isn't really anything I consider "bad" in this article, I'm gonna just nonvote.
[…] attempts to remove them from their location will result in a retrocausal reconstruction of time, such that the attempt appears to have never occurred.
So how does the foundation know the attempt even occured? They only know what they discover through testing, so how would they know the attempt was retroactively removed if no one remembers the attempt in the first place?
The way I read it was that only the person(s) attempting deconstruction are affected by the shift, with outside observers still able to remember that the attempt was made.
This, more or less. I headcanon the Foundation as having technology that is able to keep a record of reality prior to a CK event, similar to what is seen in SCP-3672.
I liked this a lot at first when it was just a series of unexplained magic rooms. The more you explained, the less I liked it.
This thing doesn't need a retrocausal defense mechanism. It doesn't need a defense at all, really. The story would be better if the Foundation could remove these rooms if they really wanted to, but choose not to do so. That's interesting. Having the rooms be magically indestructible is not interesting.
Same with the O5 bit. All that does for me is ruin any sense of mystery.

I get what you're saying here, but I couldn't pull this off without it feeling contrived. The Foundation doesn't actively use non-Thaumiel anomalies in most canons, so forcing it to stay with them seemed like the only thing I could do and have it make sense. YMMV obviously.
Interesting scp, well blended into the fondation environment. I personally enjoy scps with a fun idea that doesn't kill dozen of people and MTF better than those that do. Great work! +1
Short and sweet, I like this one.
Hope you like the reading: https://youtu.be/ysx7-m_yYzw
LMAO, I enjoyed the music choice. Fits the absurd way the Foundation ended up being stuck with this thing.
I just Watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysx7-m_yYzw
