Does Wicked Rebirth stop Stardust Dragon from tributing itself to negate destruction?!
Stardust Dragon is revived by Wicked Rebirth and you want to activate Stardust's negation effect.
No. Stardust can tribute itself as cost. Once it leaves the field, it is no longer affected by Wicked Rebirth, so its effect resolves normally.
Do Extra Deck or Nomi/semi-Nomi monsters need to be properly Summoned before they can be revived?!
A monster is sent to the GY without being properly Summoned.
Yes. They must first be properly Summoned before they can be Special Summoned by other effects like Wicked Rebirth.

●Paying 800 Life Points is a cost to activate “Wicked Rebirth.”
●This card targets the Synchro Monster, both when you activate this card and while the monster is on the field.
●If “Royal Decree” becomes active while “Wicked Rebirth” is active, the Synchro Monster’s effect is restored, and it can attack this turn.
●If you Special Summon “Stardust Dragon” with “Wicked Rebirth,” you can Tribute “Stardust Dragon” for its effect. After it is Tributed, “Stardust Dragon” is no longer targeted by “Wicked Rebirth.” Therefore its effect is restored and applied normally (so it negates an effect and is Special Summoned back to the field during the End Phase).
●The Special Summon of “Wicked Rebirth” is not a Synchro Summon, so it can't be used to Special Summon monsters like “Trident Dragion.”
