Another way is to click "View source".
Which, even in read-only mode, will
bring up action=edit. The Edit page will show a protected text area with
the wikitext source (but no edit toolbar). The text is not editable but it
is selectable and you can copy it to use in another example, as you
describe.
For example:
http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/index.php?title=Sandbox/sysop&action=edit
a 3rd option is action=raw which will give you the complete raw text
for a page without serving any HTML at all.
4th option is [[special:export]]
