Noting that today the user coldposted another page currently rated in the negatives: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-9108
Description : SCP-9108 takes the form of a lamp, standing at roughly one meter tall. The object was originally discovered in █████, Oregon, in the home of █████ ███. Mobile Task Force Epsilon-9 oversaw the transfer to Site-64 from █████. The exact origin of SCP-9108 is unknown, however evidence exists of the object being constructed between the years 1880-1910. Upon interrogation, █████ ███ explained that SCP-9108 is a family heirloom, passed down from her great grandmother.

This Article took way longer for me to make than it should have, but I’m proud of what I made. I took a lot of inspiration from SCP-457 and SCP-096 for containment and the incident report. If anyone has feedback, I’d appreciate any comment, whether it’s criticism or praise. Also, ColdColeslaw was wrong when he said I couldn’t salvage the idea, because look at what I wrote. If you want, you can read my author page if it’s out yet, but I try to post a new SCP every month, on the 20th-27th. But frankly, I’m sleep deprived, and I can barely write senesivy so, please, enjoy.

If you're aware you're too sleep deprived to make an author post…don't? If your article isn't ready for posting by the window you've chosen…don't post it? Outside of particular contests, there's never a reason to rush uploading something to the site. (Cheeky spare edit: Author posts aren't just populated automatically, they're user-made once an author has met certain criteria. Also, on the theme of time: you say this took you too long, but it's barely been a week since you last posted this idea, with apparently no use of the crit forums or sandbox in the interim? That'd be a blazingly fast turnaround for a veteran author, for a first time author not using crit resources it's just inadvisably hasty.)
ETA: Regarding the actual meat of the article, it's just a slog to get through, honestly. It takes multiple paragraphs to explain a relatively simple concept while repeating itself multiple times, and has multiple lines that just don't logically flow with the rest of the article. Most egregiously, in my opinion, you never actually explain what an Afterburn Event is, despite one killing hundreds of staff. Combine that with the lack of any story or arc to invest the reader, and the cliche pitfalls of 'exact dimension tungsten room' and 'states', this article feels like too little idea stretched across far too much text.")
Honestly, after reading the draft again, it definitely needs improvement. For some reason, when I posted this last night, I just deleted my personal notes telling me to add more things to Afterburn, clean up Dull State, etc. I’m going to either pull this from the site and get some more critique, or start implementing changes now, as it is on the wiki. Either way, I appreciate the feedback. But also, the purpose of the scheduled posting is to avoid staying on a topic for too long, but also giving myself enough time to get a finalized draft and not rushing to make as many articles as I can. If I need to, I will work on this in January, but by then I will be focusing more on my next article.

I am an SCP author whose work focuses on anomalous objects and entities. I am interested in containment failure, abilities, and emotional depth, and I try to make my writing reflect that.
