SCP Foundation
[edit]
* ... that the SCP Foundation (logo pictured) contains and documents thousands of paranormal objects that violate natural law?
- Alt 1:... that the SCP Foundation website (logo pictured) purportedly has containment procedures for thousands of paranormal objects?
- Note: I switched out the hook to be more in line with site policy. The hook now addresses the SCP Foundation as a website, not a secret organization. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 01:03, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

What was wrong with the first hook? It seemed more clearer than the second hook that you have proposed. Everything else seems fine, SCP Foundation#Spin-off works may require more copyediting.OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 07:15, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- I was informed that the original hook violated a rule on hook content, specifically "If the subject is a work of fiction or a fictional character, the hook must involve the real world in some way". Also, I cleaned up the spin-off work section a bit. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 15:24, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- Alt 3:... that the SCP Foundation (logo pictured) purportedly contains and documents thousands of paranormal objects?
- Here is an alternate version of hook 2. It has the word purportedly, which indicates that it doesn't in actuality have the thousands of paranormal objects. However, I think it may be pushing the rules on fictional content. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 15:29, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- Alt 3 sounds better. I will see you in 24 hours. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 17:20, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- I would pass.
