User blog comment:DoctorBleed/The Current state of the SCP Wiki/@comment-5614678-20180618153941

The major problem I've seen so far is that the mods and admins are the SCP Wiki are on a complete power trip, lauding their ability to ban people and delete entries off the site and their control of the content over everyone's heads whenever they're confronted by anyone or anything.

The most egregious part, however, is how the admins are bragging about how they "pushed" 4chan and /x/, the people who created the SCP and all it's content, off "their" site completely, and "changed" the "toxic" culture to be more inclusive, diverse or whatever.

It's absolutely appalling to take something you didn't create, rebrand it to your personal taste and then actively insult and attack the people who made it in the first place. It's not just extremely disrespectful, it borderlines on plagiarism. You're taking a project that was originally meant to be open-source and appealing to everybody and turning it into your own self-indulgent playpen. It's very, very bad.

No matter how "toxic" or "evil" you think the original author of something you like is, to disrespect them and brag about taking their work "away" from them is extremely scummy, actually toxic and spits in the face of everything writing should be about. Even this site acknowledges the contributions and influence of /x/, and I'm proud of them for it. Even if you think they're disgusting and awful, you should acknowledge that they're responsible for creating the thing you love so much, and show them at leaswt some respect for it.
