There are many ways to create a Wiki or a Knowledge Base in SharePoint. The following 3 options are covered in this tutorial:
Option 1: Custom Lists with Metadata. For the simple Q&A/FAQ, you can create a list with columns. At a minimum, there will be a column for a question, and a column for an answer. You can also create other columns as well, so you can filter/group/sort through the questions within a list.
Option 2: Collapsible Sections. The second way of creating a Wiki would be via Collapsible Sections on a SharePoint Page. This allows you to build an accordionstyle experience for your Wiki. This option lets you add a bit more information compared to a list. This option also looks nicer as well.
