I understand, you mean doing with the two versions (ksp1 and ksp2) like Wikipedia does with the different languages. My only objection is that this solution requires an organizational effort, reaching consensus, etc. While organizing both contents that the community is already slowly inserting into the instance that already exists seems more realistically reachable to me. It's also the right time since we're at the beginning of the discussion.
Why? The Company was ok with the wiki of KSP1, why sould be different now?
