Yorkshire Parish Registers - findmypast
With images.
They say: The first phase of this project, released today, includes nearly a million parish records from North Yorkshire County Record Office, Doncaster Archives and Local Studies, East Riding Archives and Local Studies Service, Teesside Archives and Sheffield Archives and Local Studies, as well as over 3 million parish records and Bishop’s Transcripts from the Borthwick Institute for Archives (University of York), which cover the whole of Yorkshire including West Yorkshire. Further Yorkshire parish records will be released in 2015. As the provenances of the records are defined by historical, rather than modern boundaries, areas now outside of today’s Yorkshire are also covered, such as County Durham. http://blog.findmypast.co.uk/2014/4-...538-published/

These have been updated today. I can't see anything which says which parishes have been added, but it is phase 2. Each database has a link at the side which takes you to a parish list but I think that also includes phase 1 parishes.
Unfortunately some of the links in their "Findmypast Fridays" blog post lead to the wrong databases, so here are all the (hopefully) correct links: Yorkshire Baptisms Yorkshire Baptisms - Bishop's Transcripts Yorkshire Banns Yorkshire Marriages Yorkshire Marriages - Bishop's Transcripts Yorkshire Burials Yorkshire Burials - Bishop's Transcripts
