Original article: SCP-262-IE - Li Anniversarie

This is an Interlingue translation of SCP-CN-2620, with some items shuffled around. It appears to be from a parallel universe where Interlingue - or rather, Occidental, as it was named back then - continued to gain traction following World War II. In real life, its creator, Edgar de Wahl, died shortly after the war, and his home was bombed during the war; shortly after his death, the similarly-named Interlingua usurped most of its popularity.

While the IE here is the ISO 639-1 code for Interlingue, SCP-2626-JP, which came first, uses the same SCP number for an Irish SCP, IE being the ISO 3166-1 code for Ireland. This was deliberate on la kanro la kanro 's part, and draws some attention to this very minor and probably avoidable problem in a less disruptive way.

For more information on the anomaly itself, check out the Chinese version of the article.
