Twas crinkling, and the regulars
   On Meta Tavern squawked and typed
About some new particulars
   For which no one was hyped

Why was the tooltip changed so fast
   and there was no discussion had?
We thought that this was in the past,
   is clarity a fad?

The brouhaha gained speed and steam
   with many users chiming in:
What happened to the CM team?
   Do they not hear the din?

After an hour and maybe more
   an answer posted quite sincere
We must improve our process more
   to make these things more clear

Reverted has the tooltip been,
   moar research is required here.
And when a change is made again
   we'll publicize, no fear!

And so on MSE they saw:
   Though now and then mistakes are made;
This is no sign of fatal flaw,
   good feelings will not fade

'Twas crinkling, and the regulars
   on Meta Tavern sat back down,
because from new particulars -
   a smile formed out of frown

(The answer in question. Inspired by Jabberwocky, which appears to be in 8-8-8-6 meter for the most part with an ABAB rhyme scheme. "moar" spelling intentional)
