----------------------------------

There was an announcement when cordova android 4.0.0 was released

Splash screen functionality is now provided via plugin
You will need to add the new cordova-plugin-splashscreen plugin to continue 
using a splash screen

https://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2015/04/15/cordova-android-4.0.0.html

But you are right, it should be here too 
http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/5.0.0/config_ref_images.md.html#Icons%20and%20Splash%20Screens



> cordova-plugin-splashscreen is required for splashscreen Android

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9423
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Android, Docs
>    Affects Versions: 5.1.1
>            Reporter: Sebastien Lorber
>            Priority: Trivial
>
> The current (5.1.1) documentation does mention that there is a 
> "cordova-plugin-splashscreen"
> But it does not say anything about it being required so that Splash Screen 
> works.
> According to my tests, using <splash> tags or splash preferences without 
> installing the plugin has absolutly no effect at all.
> {panel}
> Apache Cordova also offers special splash screen plugin which could be used 
> to programmatically display and hide a splash screen during application 
> launch https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen
> {panel}
> This makes us think that this plugin is ONLY useful to control the splash 
> screen programmatically, while it is absolutly required for  any splash 
> screen to simply work at all. The documentation should rather be updated
