If you archive a github pages repo will the content at github.io persist?

Question

This repo uses Github Pages to generate static content at http://scriptish.github.io/ which I don't want to disappear.

So my question if I archive the Github repo then will the content at http://scriptish.github.io/ remain or vanish?

When a Github repository is archived, the Github Pages will remain. I tried this experimentally, and the Settings for Github Pages says:

This repository has been archived. The associated GitHub Pages site remains published but settings are read-only.
