Licenses are included in common-licenses primarily on the basis of how commonly they're used in the archive. Currently, there are only about five packages in the archive covered by this license, so I don't believe this is warranted at this time. Basically, the license isn't common.
GPL-3 isn't common either, yet. But it is included, because it's the latest version of a license that is quite common, and it's expected that many packages will update their license.
The Debian Policy Manual states that packages released under the Artistic License should refer to the files in /usr/share/common-licenses. I intended to comply with that policy for the updated Parrot packages, but found I couldn't since the directory only contained an old version of the license.
