The ContentMine meta wiki does not specify a license for its content.

This may apply to other ContentMine wikis, too (I have not yet investigated).

According to the provisions of my contract, any license would be suitable, as long as it is conformant for content under the Open Definition.

In practice, my strong preference would be to use CC BY-SA 3.0, for bi-directional compatibility with popular collaborative websites such as Wikipedia and the Stack Exchange sites.

@ContentMine/administrators : happy for me to apply CC BY-SA 3.0 to the meta wiki's contents? If not, then OK for me to use CC BY 4.0 instead, which is the license currently used for contentmine.org's content?

Added footer giving license as CC BY 4.0, based on @petermr's comment here.
