Hallo!
There should be one or more tracking bugs as custom namespaces at Wikimedia Foundation (tracking) for cookbook, author, portal, etc. namespaces As far as I can remember commons: has custum namespaces too.
The "product", "component" etc. fields should be unified and the summaries should help searching these bugs.
Examples: general reports http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3736 FIXED == Bug 3736: New namespaces for Wikiportals and WikiProjects Wikimedia web sites > General/Unknown
http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1676 WORKSFORME == Bug 1676: Request: New namespace for Portal Wikimedia web sites > General/Unknown
