In terms of [[PsychonautWiki]] content development, a '''Special Content Project''' (or '''SCP''') refers to any kind of strategy or initiative meant to identify and improve parts of the site that are agreed to be lacking or needing urgent attention over an extended timescale. They are designed to draw attention to parts of the Wiki that are being actively worked on as well as increase the chances of community involvement and encourage readers to becoming active participants and contributors.
In terms of [[PsychonautWiki]] content development, a '''Special Content Project''' (or '''SCP''') refers to any kind of strategy or initiative meant to identify and improve parts of the site that are agreed to be lacking or needing urgent attention over an extended or compressed timescale. '''SCP'''s are designed to draw attention to sections of the Wiki that are being actively developed to signal their potential unreliability. They are also meant to increase the chances of community involvement and encourage readers to become active participants and contributors.


'''SCP'''s are typically proposed and organized by administrators or scholars, who oversee the project in terms of identifying the tactics and resources that are needed and having a clear and focused sense on what to improve, ideally drawing and coordinating the effort with those who decide to volunteer after seeing the active project development panels. '''Nevertheless, proposals from regular contributors are still always welcome.'''

== Purpose and Organization ==
An '''SCP''' can be thought of as strategic project of creating, revising organizing, or expanding on the informative and educational content available on the Wiki (i.e. making sure it is in accordance with its [[Guidelines|guidelines]] and values of the community) to optimize the speed in which the content is developed and refined.

'''SCP'''s must have an easily identifiable project lead who takes on primary responsibility for the project and acts as its interface to greater site content development initiatives (such as increasing the scientific rigor and grounding of our claims).  
In general, all '''SCP'''s must have an easily identifiable project lead or leads who takes on primary responsibility for the project and acts as its interface to greater site content development initiatives (such as increasing the scientific rigor and grounding of our content in proper citations).

All '''SCP'''s will have their own custom panel that denotes the page is under active development and therefore does not currently reflect the standards of the Wiki.

== Organization and Protocols ==
== Conditions ==
Before an '''SCP''' can be officially approved and initiated, one must first meet these requirements:
'''In general, if a page has been designated as part of an SCP, all normal/external minor edits should be put on hold due to the high volatility of page changes''' (this saves people the time from making minor edits of parts of pages that end up getting wiped entirely later on). During this overhaul period, summaries of the changes will take on the form of "('''SCP''' name) Overhaul In Progress" if deemed justifiably expedient.
# Create a an issue on our [https://psychonaut.atlassian.net/secure/Dashboard.jspa JIRA To-Do List]) under the "Special Content Project" board
 
Once the overhaul has been deemed complete, the tag will removed and normal editing and summarizing procedures may resume. If one would like to be part of the content developing/editing process as it is occurring, please ask the Project Lead to be added to the project so that changes can be more precisely coordinated. Likewise, if one feels the restrictions imposed by the tag has gone on too long, please feel free to message the Project Lead or another Administrator to notify them of the situation.
 
== Protocols ==
Before an '''SCP''' can be officially initiated, one must first meet these requirements:
# Create an issue on our [https://psychonaut.atlassian.net/secure/Dashboard.jspa JIRA To-Do Board] under the "Special Content Project" board.
# Create a PsychonautWiki page (see the page for [[Project C-PSY]] for an example.
# Create a PsychonautWiki page (see the page for [[Project C-PSY]] for an example.
# Design a panel from the template (search for Template: Project C-SPY Announce, copy it, then search for Template: Project X, create a new page, copy the contents and modify)
# Design a panel from the template (e.g. search for Template: Project C-SPY Announce, copy it, then search for Template: Project X, create a new page, copy the contents and modify).
 
# Submit your proposal to an administrator or scholar for approval.

* Make yourself available in case anyone with expertise stumbles across it that ends up with an improved page :)

== Subjective effects==
== Subjective effects ==
The effects listed below are based upon the [[subjective effects index]] and personal experiences of [[PsychonautWiki]] contributors. The listed effects will rarely (if ever) occur all at once, but heavier doses will increase the chances and are more likely to induce a full range of effects. Note that these effects are highly variable and not as reliably induced as they are with [[psychoactive]] substances.
===Physical effects===
*[[Stimulation]]
*[[Wakefulness]]
*[[Stamina enhancement]]
*[[Appetite suppression]]
=== Cognitive effects ===
*[[Time distortion]]
*[[Focus enhancement]]
*[[Immersion enhancement]]
*[[Motivation enhancement]]
*[[Thought acceleration]]
*[[Thought connectivity]]
*[[Thought organization]]
*[[Multiple thought streams]]
*[[Cognitive euphoria]]
*[[Ego inflation]]
=== Spiritual effects ===
These effects are rare and unable to be reliably produced. However, in the right context, their manifestation can be profound.
*[[Personal meaning enhancement]]
*[[Feelings of self-design]]
*[[Feelings of self-design]]
*'''[[Effect::Thought acceleration]]'''
*[[Unity and interconnectedness]]
*'''[[Effect::Time distortion]]''' - A perceived increase of time can be attributed to the dopaminergic properties of this substance.<ref>Rammsayer, T. (1989). Is there a common dopaminergic basis of time perception and reaction time? Neuropsychobiology, 21(1), 37–42. Retrieved from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2573003</ref><ref>Sessi, P., Di Sante, D., Szczerbakow, A., Glott, F., Wilfert, S., Schmidt, H., … Bode, M. (2016). Robust spin-polarized midgap states at step edges of topological crystalline insulators. Science, 354(6317), 1269–1273. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aah6233</ref>
===After effects===
*[[Ego inflation]]
The effects which occur during the offset of a '''SCP''' experience generally feel negative and uncomfortable in comparison to the effects which occurred during its peak. This is often referred to as a "comedown". Its effects commonly include:
Focus enhancement
 
Immersion enhancement
*'''[[Effect::Cognitive fatigue]]'''
Motivation enhancement
*'''[[Effect::Motivation suppression]]'''
Multiple thought streams
*'''[[Effect::Thought deceleration]]'''
Novelty enhancement
*'''[[Effect::Wakefulness]]'''
Personal meaning enhancement
Thought acceleration
Thought connectivity
Thought organization
Wakefulness
Stamina enhancement
Cognitive euphoria
Unity and interconnectedness
Existential self-realization
Stamina enhancement
Appetite suppression
