Stories and Editorials


No stories for you this month folks, apologies!


Writing and Art Prompts

Site News is bringing you monthly writing and art prompts! Every month there will be user-submitted prompts to help inspire new pieces. Participation in these prompts is completely optional, and any pages based on the prompts will be featured in the next issue of Site News! If you're interested in submitting a prompt for next Site News, send a wikidot PM to RhineriverRhineriver or ProblemPalProblemPal. One prompt submission per person, and up to five prompts will be shown in each edition of Site News.

This month's prompts are below!

Peter, the Horse is here Submitted by AWhiteBoy
write about a horse. bonus points if the horse isn't related to the anomaly in any way.

If I'd been there Submitted by XHAWK77X
Pick a KCon you didn't participate in, whether because you weren't writing for the wiki back then or you just missed it. Write the article you would have written if you had been there for it. Follow its theme and try to make it feel like it could've been from the point in the wiki's history the contest was held. (so really this is 11 prompts in a trench coat)

Livin' Local Submitted by UlyssesBark
Write an article about an urban legend from a town/city/county you've lived in.

If you write an entry inspired by this or a previous month's prompts, feel free to send a wikidot PM to RhineriverRhineriver or ProblemPalProblemPal to have it featured in the next Site News! There isn't a time limit on getting prompt submissions featured, so feel free to write for a previous month's prompts as well!1

Every month, an article is selected from each of the three common article types: SCP, Tale, and Group of Interest Format. These three articles are displayed on the front page for the month to bring further recognition to them.

If you would like to view the previous front page features, you can view the archive for the SCPs here, the archive for the Tales here, and the archive for the GoI Formats here!

Reviewers' Spotlights

Works are featured on the site’s front page as part of the Reviewers’ Spotlight, which acknowledges the time and effort spent by forum reviewers helping other authors develop and edit and their works for the mainsite. Each month, community members are encouraged to nominate forum reviewers who have been both particularly helpful and active. Members of the Forum Criticism Team will then discuss the nominations, and select four prominent reviewers to choose the month’s Reviewers’ Spotlight front-page features.

If you'd like to nominate a reviewer for the Reviewers' Spotlight, DM your nomination to ZynZyn!

If you would like to view previous spotlights, you can view the archive for them here!

Site News Creature Feature

Greetings, goblins and ghouls from every corner of the world. I am Uncle NicoliniUncle Nicolini, your gracious host for this newest segment of Site News; none other than the Creature Feature! "What is the Creature Feature?", I hear you ask. Well, my fellow creatures of the night: this new segment is aimed at putting your furry, scaled, and feathered friends in the spotlight! That's right, we're doing Super Cute Pets, starring you, the reader's, very own animal companions!

Creature Feature FAQ

"How do I get my pet on there?"

Simply submit an image hosted on the SCP sandbox or other image hosting service via PM to DianaBerryDianaBerry, MetalRavioliMetalRavioli, or Uncle NicoliniUncle Nicolini, along with a paragraph or so telling us your pet's name, species, and a little about them!

"Is there anything I need to agree to?"

Only that you are releasing the image of your pet under CC BY-SA 3.0! Its the site license, after all.

"Anything else?"

Nope! All you gotta do is wait. And who knows? Maybe your pet will be the next month's Creature Feature!

And now, for the main attraction…

Presenting…Timmothy McGee!

Timmy

Hello readers! My name is DianaBerryDianaBerry, and I am here to introduce you to the one brain called beast, Timothy McGee, also known as Timmy for short! Adopted around 2022/2023, Timmy is a sweet cat with a heart of gold, but a brain of mush. All he knows are cuddles and kindness, not realizing he’s too big to be a lap cat most of the time. He’s very friendly and gets along well with the other cats.
