What CSS hacks? It looks like a perfectly ordinary Wikipedia page to me, complete with all components of the standard user interface. I do notice now that the text "Welcome to the Jungle!" has been inserted above the horizontal rule at the top of the page, in a spot that's normally blank on other pages, but this hardly seems like a reason to freak out.
I oppose protection unless there's a good and ongoing reason, as a general rule. But that's been taken care of too.
So yeah, I really don't see what the problem is.
I didn't write that, I responded to it.
