Articles are protected in whatever state they are at the time. However, you will note that the article is only semi-protected, meaning that established users who were previously involved in gaining the consensus that you mention can still edit the article.

The current revision of the article obviously cannot be to everyone's liking (see The Wrong Version). However, it is worth remembering that if you and other editors had used discussion instead of edit-warring, the article would not have been protected in the first place.
