Should I assume that most of the selectors specific to Wikia are in the # id form? Yes, and no. Mostly, elements are assigned both ids and classes in Oasis. These may or may not be the same. For instance, the section element with the id WikiaPage also has the classes WikiaPage and V2, and can be selected with CSS using either  or. However, in Monobook most elements are assigned ids as opposed to classes or both.

For instance, on the main page of my wiki, I inspected an area of text within the body, and the element highlighted is the eighth-nested element following #WikiaPage (including three more # id elements). In your example, I'm assuming the text you wish to select is inside the contents of the page (that is, it can be edited via ?action=edit). Such texts blocks are usually hard to select, as the content may change. For this, you can surround your text with a span or div tag with a custom id/class. Note that you don't necessarily require the #WikiaPage part every time; you can just select the nearest id and then get your element with a suitable selector.

From what I can see, you lack knowledge in how selectors work. So, I'd suggest you go through this guide, or for some actual practice, this one, to see how it all works.
