The choice you offer is false, in my opinion. If you violate copyright law, you will never gather a community effort, because who wants to work on something that can get DMCA'ed out of existance at any moment?
I think CC-BY-(maybe SA) will work fine, and just use appropriately licensed basic sources like wikipedia.
Plenty of people will work on things that are in legally nebulous territory. That's the entirety of the WINE project, ReactOS, and a large number of modding communities.
In practice, it's impossible for any of these projects to die, because the material they hack on is distributed between all their members and there's no single point of failure.
The more nebulous, the fewer contributors. I certainly would prefer to contribute to properly licensed projects; I've had the fun of putting work into a project that for silly license reasons couldn't get into Debian/GSOC/... I'm willing to forgo it in the future.
I haven't done any deck making, so give this low weight, but I imagine a truly collaborative and creative joint project where making up, say, fallacious arguments -> fallacy name notes that are actually challenging is half the fun, and the benefit of copy-pasta is small anyway.
