Would an FAQ wiki be more affective than one written entirely by certain authors?

I've suggested using a Wiki in several FAQ threads, but I've never gotten a response. I've seen Wikis used to create an entire encyclopedia now(www.wikipedia.com), and I think it works best with FAQ-type things. Anyone that wanted to drop their two pence in could, and if it was deemed innappropriate, it could be removed. Additionally, I think it's the only way we could ever get the thing anywhere near finished.

What do you think?

edit: For those who don't know, Wiki is a system wherein a web page can be editted by anyone passing by, or reverted to a previous version. Syntax exists for formatting and linking new topics. It is less social than a bulletin board and more for reference type applications, wherein information can be added in from diverse sources and kept or thrown out based on the reader's standards.
