Just a heads-up that there are currently efforts underway for the (long overdue) redesign of the error page that shows when the servers are down: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T76560 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/M15/23/
Twitter is the recommended medium to update the public on larger outages (as we obviously can't rely on our own sites for communication in that kind of situation), see also
