[To the tune of "The Star-Spangled Banner"]
O say can you see,
By the page, mostly white,
What so proudly we hailed,
On October twenty-ninth?
Whose Lucida Grande,
Through the maint’nance downtime,
O’er the error message,
Proved the database still there?
And those brave volunteers,
Even though commandeered,
Through the status page,
Vow no works disappeared;
O say, does that "Arch-ive Down For Maint’nence" page display
For the grand AO3,
And the groundwork it laid?
