No, the Kindle currently named "Kindle Basic" by Amazon Marketing (in most countries) was introduced in November, 2014 (in the USA).
When you say "Wiki" - if you mean:

That is the exception that breaks your general rule.
That page is as up-to-date as it can be, it is maintained along with KindleTool (the packager/un-packager for the model locked update_*.bin packages).
At the moment there is one model known that is not listed -
Only because the person who reported it has failed to give the details of country and options.

How to find things on this forum is a FGA - which was near the first of things you found.
At least it was if you started at the sticky thread: "Where do I start".
