Actually, even if you choose "none" for your license type, it still
populates the GFDL tag in Special:AllMessages. I sent an e-mail off to
Jimbo regarding copyrights on non-public documents,to which he replied
that we are free to publish documents under any license we wish, even
if it is proprietary. This would fall under the Typical Commercial
Licenses as outlined in the FAQ.

However, I am confused because the 'edit' tab of my new wiki states
that anything contributed to my wiki is under the terms of the GFDL.
When you were setting up your Wiki, you told it you wanted to license it
under the GFDL, then. You probably wanted "No license" instead.
