As per [http://www.scp-wiki.net/forum/t-12255912/how-to-use-this-forum-drafts-critique How to Use This Forum], **do not post entire drafts onto the forum**. Please use the [http://scp-sandbox-3.wikidot.com/ SCP Sandbox site] and link that in your thread.
Additionally, users cannot post to the Draft Critique Forums without greenlights. Please familiarize yourself with the [http://www.scp-wiki.net/forum/t-10629348/new-draft-forum-policies Draft Forum Policies].
As per the Draft Forum Policies, new authors are to get their concepts reviewed and greenlighted by two experienced reviewers on the Idea Critique Forums before posting on the Draft Critique Forums.
During the conceptualization stage, reviewers can give assistance in developing an idea before a draft is written. They can also assist in letting you know if something similar exists on the site already, or inform you of various clichés/pitfalls to be cautious of. These elements are more effectively addressed earlier in the writing process.
If you would like to request a draft review without greenlights, you can use the IRC Chatrooms to solicit critique.
If you have already received the requisite greenlights, please note the thread in which you received them, or the users whom provided them.
