Ah, I just noticed on their "about" page:
All the information here is immediately derived from Marathon, its third party scenarios, Bungie employees, players of the game who derived their own conclusions from the above three. Copyrights to those pieces of information belong to their respective owners.
Which means "all your base are belong to you, and their base are belong to them, and we don't claim anybody's base for us". So Traxus doesn't have a license; every individual contributor has their own license. Like in the old days, the whole thing seems to be operating without concern for licensing, just doing cool shit for its own sake, with a passing note that "by the way, there are laws that may relate to what we're doing here, it's best not to break them".
The whole damn net is so legalistic these days... but, there are laws that relate to a lot of what we do, so we'd better be clear about what exactly it is we're doing as regards those laws, i.e. what sort of license a contribution to the site construes (which would be my main concern), and what sort of license that material is published under (which seems to be Guesty's concern). And again, my suggestion is "public domain, fuck copyrights", which solves both problems, but that's ultimately up to whoever owns Traxus to decide.
