Critique Team Hub

The Critique Team is the staff team of the SCP Wiki concerned with providing critique on the Ideas and Drafts Critique Forums, Offical Discord writing channels, the IRC #thecritters channel, and on articles posted to the mainsite. Additionally, they are in charge of moderating behavior in the three aforementioned critique spaces and on published articles, and reporting rule-breaking behavior to the Disciplinary Team, the IRC moderators, or the Discord Team. More specifically, their responsibilities are:
