Authorisation is likewise given for translation of the document, provided that the authorship of the original text is indicated, and that the translated text is distributed under [...], the Creative Commons licence that authorises copying and redistribution, or a similar licence.

On WikiMedia, you can find a definition about a derivative work.

A 'derivative work' is a work based upon one or more pre-existing works, such as a translation, musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which a work may be recast, transformed, or adapted. A work consisting of editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications, which, as a whole, represent an original work of authorship, is a 'derivative work'.

I suppose we can distribute reworked versions since we are allowed to make translations (c.f. Creation Commons).
