* * [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-6005 SCP-6005]] was once a psychic field that made certain people dream of building a beautiful garden together and these dreams would influence them to be more cooperative and try to create friendly communities and gardens in real life. It was completely harmless and could have even been benefitable. The SCP Foundation was unwilling to believe that it could be that harmless and feared, without any good reasoning, it would lead to a BrokenMasquerade, which lead them to corrupt the field so badly that it's now causing people to dream of a forest and vanish into it, which has led to almost ''two thousand'' people going missing.

* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3959 SCP-3959]] is an antimemetic hazard created by the Foundation in their (failed) effort to stop [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3002 SCP-3002]], which itself was created as a result of an unsuccessful attempt to contain [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1425 SCP-1425]]. While it works as expected, it doesn't stop SCP-3002 and is discovered to have a mild cognitohazardous effect. However, it begins to exert a very powerful cognitohazard, escapes containment, and gorges itself upon all information that it can across the entire world. The Foundation speculates that it may even retroactively erase what it redacts from existence/ever happening, but the redactions and antimemes make it impossible to ever know. [[spoiler: The Foundation also discovers an indestructible textbook containing all of human knowledge and history, that updates itself continuously, that SCP-3959 briefly infected. The Foundation managed to get it out and is now doing everything possible to prevent SCP-3959 from reinfecting it, but the [[WhamLine first 248 pages have been redacted]] and the Foundation predicts that SCP-3959 could [[OhCrap redacted the entire rest of the book in less than 1000 hours if exposed.]]]]

* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-6455 SCP-6455]] is about a serial killer who has an anti-memetic effect where he can kill people, and all of the evidence pointing towards him is obfuscated to people who do not have mnestics (medicine that can negate the effects of anti-memetics) applied, and is even more obfuscated to law enforcement. [[spoiler:The Foundation catches the criminal, but in order to hold up the Masquerade, they refuse to alert the public for fear of making them uneasy. However, because the killer's identity was never revealed, relatives of the victims end up worried that he is still out there, and their thoughts end up creating an anomalous entity on their own that performs copy cat killings to this day. The Foundation cannot do anything about this, as the Masquerade would be broken, but if they do nothing, then the entity will continue killing more people and getting stronger.]]
* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-7996 SCP-7996]] refers to a bunch of anomalies resulting from a gradual decline in pataphysical transmissions to the [=SCP=] universe.[[note]]Basically, people in ''our'' universe are gradually becoming less interested in [=SCPs=] and the Foundation, causing their universe to gradually degrade.[[/note]] As this seems to be unstoppable and will eventually cause the destruction of the universe, the Foundation, in desperation, comes up with three (mutually-exclusive) proposed courses of action in a last-ditch attempt to save reality, and the [=O5s=] have to vote on which one of the three to set in action. One of the proposals, Project [=SETFREE=], involves completely sealing the window with the pataphysical universe and cutting off pataphysical transmissions altogether, on the theory that the universe predated the arrival of the pataphysical transmissions and should recover on its own if severed from them. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-7996/offset/1 If the O5s choose Project SETFREE]], the Foundation successfully severs all pataphysical connections to the pataphysical universe... which catastrophically accelerates the deterioration of the universe (and quite possibly ''all'' non-pataphysical universes), resulting in a [[ApocalypseHow/ClassZ ZK-Class Reality Failure Scenario]] in ''under a week''. [[spoiler:Fortunately, the two alternate courses of action both successfully preserve reality, with varying levels of casualties.]]

* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2305 SCP-2305]] is a book of hypothetical examples, providing detailed explanations of why the SimpleSolutionWontWork and the horrific outcomes that would result from simply shooting some anomalies. In the more extreme cases, the best-case scenario is TheUnmasquedWorld; the absolute worst is the [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1032 fortune-telling clock]] [[ApocalypseHow/ClassZ destroying the universe]] after they try to stop its hands.
