Creative Commons license, which one?

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).

Which Creative Commons licenses are allowed?
