I think the namespace idea could work, but makes searching harder. (Search
isn't automatically extended across namespaces.)

One approach is to allow 'subpages' in your main wiki namespace. Then you
can structure your documentation based on version and use templates to
guide the user.

That's how they do it on wiki.slicer.org  "Nightly" is a version number
that means 'latest or current'.

https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly

There are multiple templates that keep the user informed about what version
of the documentation they are using (In other words, where they are in the
tree).

e.g. https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Template:Documentation/version/edit

<includeonly>{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}} | 1 | 2 }}</includeonly><noinclude>

== Usage ==

<pre>{{documentation/version}}</pre>

{{note}}Since this template is not specific to a given version. Exercising
the template would return the string 'version'

[[Category:Templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]
</noinclude>
