The listed "dere" types in UsefulNotes.Anime Fanspeak are just the four most common dere types, with any other dere type not listed in it being uncommon in comparison to those four.

I tried searching the term itself and it brought into a non-existent page (and also appears as red link), so I assume it doesn't have a trope that it redirects to, but if you're looking for what would be the closes tropes that can cover himedere, it could be asked at Trope Finder.

Number 1 reason why the wiki doesn't have something is because it's simply yet to be added.

Yeah, compared to the four mentioned, himidere is just not a commonly used term.

If you really feel you have a workable trope, there's also the Trope Idea Sounding Board to gauge opinions.

It's also the case that even if we don't have a page dedicated to the term, we may have a trope that covers the concept, as the term simply hasn't been popularized outside of Japan like the other 4 have been. If this site's definition is valid, I feel like the general idea is covered by Ojou and its related tropes as well as Sugar-and-Ice Personality.

I'd never heard of this particular -dere type before today. I'm inclined to agree with amathieu13; perhaps one or more of those pages' definitions could have something related to himidere included if it's deemed necessary.

I think you could try to launch it as Fan Speak in TLP, but the tropeworthy usage is probably covered
