That main page of that wiki says

Btrfs is under heavy development, and is not suitable for any uses other
than benchmarking and review. The Btrfs disk format is not yet
finalized, but it will only be changed if a critical bug is found and no
workarounds are possible.
I guess it will not appear until it is declared stable.
