SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a 6 m x 6 m x 3 m
Are the dimensions of the room really necessary to object containment?
Any personnel attempting unauthorized interaction with SCP-XXXX when it is not capped are to be severely reprimanded.
I'm not sure that this sentence is really necessary, it seems like a given that personnel who don't follow safety/security protocol are going to be reprimanded.
Together, the contents of SCP-XXXX form a complex, fully functioning ecosystem that behaves just as a normally sized ecosystem of the same components would behave
I'm confused. Do the microorganisms function as macroorganisms in a microbiome, or does it contain macroorganisms on a microscale? Or are the microorganisms made up of macroorganism cells?
While the actual area of the bottom of SCP-XXXX is about 70,686
A. No it's not. A circle of diameter 150 would have an area of 17671.46
B. That's a pretty exact number, I suggest removing "about"
2 square kilometers of land, scaled down appropriately to fit within SCP-XXXX
2 km2 scaled down just isn't 2 km any more. An area can't just be made smaller but have the same value. I understand what you're aiming for here, but this is phrased poorly.
Upon observation with a microscope, the forest contained within SCP-XXXX contains species of flora visually identical to many modern plants
So it contains scaled down macroorganisms, and not microorganisms?
late Neolithic Stone Age humans
"Neothilic" literally means "new stone age" so I would suggest removing "stone age".

This whole article is very dependent on this list, which ends up being mostly a bunch of unrelated organisms. There are already several articles that are pretty much just a list of weird animals. Not saying that it can't be done again, just that it needs to somehow differentiate itself from all the others.
The common ash tree is native to Europe, which effectively screws over the premise of this forest being an accurate historical representation
A. Not if it's a representation of a man-made forest.
B. Not very clinical tone.
Notes: Can't say I was expecting that. - Dr. Langsti
In my opinion, these notes don't add much and end up seriously detracting from tone.
Tentatively identified as the dire wolf (Canis dirus)
Forgot to italicize.
Notes: Holy shit. - Dr. Langsti
I would honestly down vote for this alone. Completely lacking in scientific tone.
by the apparent chieftain of group Alpha
I assume this designates a group of humans in the object, but you hadn't specified that yet.
Containment procedures updated. Unlike what Junior Researcher Johnston seems to think, it was not actually a tiny version of a giant prehistoric carnivorous bug
This is borderline lolFoundation.
similar to the one recovered from the famous Otzi the Iceman find
It's generally not a great idea to link to wikipedia from your article.
In light of Incident I-XXXX-B, additional temperature controls are to be installed in the cleanroom, and containment protocol is to be updated to reflect these changes.
A. And what happened during this incident?
B. Why not just keep the lid on and put it in a storage locker somewhere?
