SCP Foundation

If you can guess who I brought in from KoI-Format you get one (1) internet cookie.

Overall: I don't really have much to say about this, 4/10 and would probably not vote as is/downvote. It's kind of just "meh" and lacking anything I find particularly compelling. Adding details and narrative, etc would be a step in the right direction. The carp bit felt rather shoehorned in, and it was odd that the ponds weren't mentioned in the containment procedures at all.

Some questions to help fuel thoughts:

• Why should the reader care?
• What kind of emotion do you want the reader to have reading this?
• What tone are you going for, and how can you make that work within the article format?
• What are the implications of the SCP existing, both in regards to its creation and what it means later down the road? What is the aftermath of it being contained, or is containment in full not feasible?

Safe

I know this is controversial, but I'm of the opinion that any containment that requires routine maintenance isn't Safe. Obviously that's not a consensus, and you are free to ignore this, but I thought I should mention it.

with all surfaces made of pure cobalt.

Metallic cobalt is brittle, I'm not sure you can even effectively use it structurally. In the real-world cobalt is usually alloyed. I'm also not sure what the cobalt is doing there. It isn't mentioned again in your draft, so I don't see anything that says this weed wouldn't grow on it.

but it can survive on materials which are completely devoid of nutrients by growing on dead instances of itself.

This violates thermodynamics; I don't know if that's intentional, though.

By the time containment efforts began, it had been released into the wild in several locales.

This doesn't seem like a Safe anomaly, then (or even really contained). Duckweeds grow very fast and some duckweeds already are a problematic invasive organism in environments with abnormally elevated nutrients, super-duckweed that can grow anywhere (while ignoring entropy) looks like an ecological catastrophe to me.

Research Assistant Lynzil captured footage of the local Prussian carp scraping off SCP-XXXX infested scales and retreating to safe water to begin the healing process. It is unclear if this is a learned behavior or a sign of possible anomalous activity.

I feel like this connects to your building koi-mythos, but I'm not really getting the significance here. Although I do like the use of a memetic anomaly in non-humans!

Overall, I don't think this is really doing much for me that stands out. The more interesting implications are simply ignored or glossed over, and what is here doesn't really have a hook that is more compelling than what's missing (which makes me wonder if there's some kind of clever elision here where I'm meant to draw some conclusion from what's absent, but if there is I'm too dense).
