It would seem that the natural place would be in the WOLips wiki. I can see how having it spread around makes extra documentation work and difficulties.

For example, a writer could refer to the "current version" throughout a document and maybe a note at the top would say "the current recommended version is 4.5 (July 2014)" and so on. Updating the document often would just be changing the 4.5 to 4.6, the date, July 2014 to March 2015, etc. Anything to help keep the documentation easy to update and provide clues as to what year the documentation was written.
BTW, Confluence do display the last modified date of a page. But if we only fix a spelling mistake on a two years old document, it will put the date of the last modification.
