There's a semantic query for this:

It can be found at <
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents#Requesting_A_New_Project>
as "Outstanding Requests". It'll only show open ones.

One of the ones waiting is

I've been wary to create some projects because they are development of a
single mediawiki extension. We really need a project that's made for
MediaWiki extension development that's easier to use than making individual
projects and instances for every extension. It's not a really simple
problem though.

For now we'll continue on creating these, but hopefully we'll set something
up and start migrating folks at some point.
