The specific feedback is that it is unnecessary to transclude the login form on every page. Great news! We agree with that. For a long time, Wikia has been working on our backend for a new log-in and user registration system called Helios. It's built outside of the traditional MediaWiki architecture, which allows us to avoid a lot of the traps MediaWiki architecture has put us in. We have been slowly rolling out parts of Helios after testing. Unfortunately, this vulnerability was exploited before we were able to provide a closure that would maintain similar functionality. That's truly regrettable, but only drives us more to improve this system as a whole. If Javascript will not return anytime in the immediate future (next few days), then can we see it return after Helios is implemented since logins should be more secure at that point?
