I'm sure all of those hooks have a corresponding extension that needs the new hook.
Right! (Kudos to iAlex for creating all those pages.) However, most extension pages don't have updated lists of used hooks, so WhatLinksHere doesn't help. I suspect it might be easier (!) to check the MediaWiki release requirement in the extension infobox: maybe {{Extension}} could be changed so that it autocategorizes by required release? Maybe if there's a central updated location where to look for such information users will start using it and devs will think it's worth spending a few minutes to update the docs.
A for hooks, I've seen people removing them (as well as |parameters= and |rights= ) from extension pages because it's too tedious to update them, they change too much and devs can already find them easily in the code. I think they're all registered in a standard way, so a bot could be written to update extension pages regularly; it would be very useful.
