I'd just like to remind everyone about this part of the post
 * Our aim from the start is to maintain performance in the most active group while significantly increasing engagement amongst the other groups.

If you think that you are part of the most active group, take the rest of the month off to send a clear message to Wikia.

edit: I've been thinking about this some more, and even if you just hide the thing with adblock or personal CSS - if you continue using Wikia during this test, it will be recorded in Wikia's results as: "This user's editing/browsing habits have not changed, therefore they are okay with the new design"
