I made something similar to have a key-shortcut quickly show a 'cheatsheet' for whatever application window that is in focus in i3(window manager). If no cheatsheet exists it opens an empty document so I can fill it in and save it.

I don't know about the wiki, but there's https://github.com/dash-docs-el/helm-dash and https://github.com/blahgeek/emacs-devdocs-browser for browsing docs offline in Emacs. Though if you're looking for stuff you can read offline in Emacs maybe try a book, Emacs is nice for reading pdf's or epub's (with nov.el)
I've found what I've been looking for!!
