The English Wikipedia looks like this during the blackout.
Right now, the U.S. Congress is “considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open Internet”. This comes in the form of the two bills, SOPA and PIPA.
Wikipedia is blacking out its English language encyclopedia for 24 hours. If you’re curious, it’s actually pretty easy to get around the blackout. The easiest way is to add “?banner=none” to the end of any Wikipedia url. The most efficient way is to disable Javascript in your browser.
The good news is that support for SOPA and PIPA is waning.
