You could allow every contributor to choose the license of his choice. So, 
ever page would have a different license. That's what I do in some of my 
projects.

I am very interested in learning more about your reasoning on public domain 
and why it's your favourite. If you have enough time, please give me some 
reasons why a site admin should allow wikiauthors to choose public domain for 
their contributions. If you wanted to make me support PD, what would you tell 
me?

(the reason I ask is because I allow GFDL and CC-by-sa in my wikis and I am 
considering adding support for standard copyright, BSDL, other CC, and 
perhaps PD, so I am evaluating the pros and cons and I am trying to listen to 
as many opinions as possible)
