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.
