These requests should go through Special:Contact/support@shoutwiki.com but test wikis are against our Content Policy anyway.
Almost everything on this list is not set the way you're requesting on purpose.

You won't see an identified cause or steps towards a solution because you're not a member of staff. It is a known issue and is being worked on.

Produced a fairly basic special page prototype. Job needs fleshing out and form needs validation.
@jack Any thoughts?

So I'm going to target this for February 2018... it'll give us a bit of prep time after LetsEncrypt launches wildcard certificates in January.
I'm going to go as far as to say I can't see us supporting this extension any time in the next 12 months. I'm almost tempted to go further, but who knows. A few months ago, I would have said the same thing about Echo.

So the idea, other than just providing the deletion log if a wiki was deleted, is to provide something along the lines of the old Wikia home page with image links to related and big wikis.
So NoSuchWiki no longer uses HTTP_REFERER as browsers don't set this often enough for this to be reliable.

Isn't there already a task to rewrite CreateWiki's backend?
The fix is to stop using HTTPS. I know, it sucks, but it's unsupported for a very good reason at the moment, and it'll stop working when our current certificate expires in about two months time.

Within certain parameters, yes. Email support@shoutwiki.com. This isn't a bug, and it is a widely known fact.

Unless I'm mistaken, ShoutWiki gains revenue from hosting the ads. Individual users blocking them on their personal devices (there are dozens of free content blockers out there) shouldn't affect anything

Yes, there are security and/or privacy issues. The applicable part here being "privacy issues". Which is why only staff can use these tools to enable us to do our jobs. We take privacy seriously, and these tools are not used unless it is necessary. LookupUser was originally written by one of the key MediaWiki developers, who is currently employed by the Wikimedia Foundation, so will have been written with security and privacy concerns in mind.
There's a reason a number of extensions in the repository are unused. For Configure it's a case of "works okay for one wiki, not 8800+."
