A wiki would work, but the essence of the ISO quality system is:

1. Say what you do
2. Do what you say
3. Write it down

"We use a wiki" is #1. Making that the policy, in writing, is #3. You can pretty quickly cobble together #1 and #3. But don't forget about #2. An auditor will likely go to someone and ask, "what is your system?" and then "please show me a document you're using from the system."
