I don't think that you would get the wiki documentations updated before
or at the same time that the package is released.

documentation) I prefer the docs in the svn repository and released with
the package.

I disagree, I usually check manpages and I expect them to be updated, if
they are not I consider it a serious bug and I think that most of users
agree with this.

I prefer a good local documentation and a good online documentation. I
only expect local and online documentation with final releases, for
betas, previews or testing releases I don't expect it.
But the only reason, at my understanding, which I've read to get rid of
the packages documentation is:
- I/We don't have time/resources to maintain it.
Then, I suggest to get it minimal and with a link to the wiki to expand it.
