* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1523 SCP-1523]], an article about a incense coil that when burning becomes sentient, the security officer asks SCP-1523 to sing "[[Music/AlGreen Let's Stay Together]]," a song which SCP- 1523 performed in concert many times. In response, SCP-1523 plays a completely different song with most lines consisting of the phrase "[[Music/AlanJackson there is power in the blood]]."

In response, SCP-1523 plays a completely different song with most lines consisting of the phrase "[[Creator/AlanJackson there is power in the blood]]."

* When Senior Researcher Huxtable are selecting music to help relieve [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5031 SCP-5031's]] stress levels, "The Best of ..." albums concerning Music/{{KISS}}, Music/{{Ben Folds}}, Music/{{Enya}}, Music/{{Jethro Tull}}, [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers and]] [[Music/WolfgangAmadeusMozart Mozart]] are all chosen.

* Sloth's Pit, Wisconsin is a QuirkyTown where weird stuff happens, called a "Nexus" in Foundation terminology. [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/the-s-c-plastics-hub The Hub]] for the canon centering around Sloth's Pit names [[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls Roadkill County, Oregon]] as another major Nexus.

* Quite a few [=SCPs=] reference Music/TheyMightBeGiants, with one of the more obvious ones being [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1559 SCP-1559]], "Birdsoul in Your House", and Snail Shell is referenced in [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/it-s-a-bad-bad-world Where's the Shadow Government When You Need Them?]] Both of these, and more that reference [=TMBG=], are written by the same person, so it's a clear case of AuthorAppeal.

* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2600 SCP-2600]] is an Atari 2600 connected to 8 anomalous televisions. The addenda note that the project behind its creation was titled "[=STELLA=]", a codename for the system and the name of one of the more well-known 2600 emulators for PC. Also a reference to WebVideo/GameTheory, which hypothesized a connection between Atari and the CIA's MK-ULTRA program.

* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-026 026]] very closely follows the plot of the Literature/{{Goosebumps}} book, ''The Haunted School''.

* [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2516 SCP-2516]] is the [[UrbanLegends Urban Legend]] of [[WebVideo/BedtimeStoriesYoutubeChannel "The Man from Taured"]], an inadvertent DimensionalTraveller detained in Paris International Airport with a passport from "Taured", a supposed country landlocked between France and Spain's borders. Passing away after years in the Foundation's custody, his cremated ashes were sent in a cart down the train tunnel they believed might've been his portal between their timelines, hoping he could be laid to rest in Taured. [[spoiler: After that, a cart with a different urn returned through, this one's note requesting burial in the Principality of Andorra.]]

* ''[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/the-cool-war-hub The Cool War]]'': street artists Banksy and Robbo are at least aware of the MadArtist group "Are We Cool Yet?" and Pico AKA [[JackTheRipOff The Snipper]] has way too much in common with [[Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} Gamzee]] to be a coincidence: His seat of choice is a "corpse pile" ("___ pile" is a thing in ''Homestuck''), his art project [[spoiler: dumping a ton of the green slime that must never come into contact with dead bodies onto said corpse pile]] is announced with a loud '''HOOOOOOOOOONK''', and [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/the-toyman-and-the-doctor this page]] shows how [[spoiler: he and Mr. Redd interacted - Pico writes timidly with lower-case letters in crayon while Mr. Redd uses a lot of bold/underlines/all-caps written in blood]].
