Such translation of CC content is pretty much unpreventable and can be a
benefit or a drawback depending on the author's own opinion.
From the point of view of an official 'version of
record' (i.e. what the
doi points to) the authors would be named along with
attribution of all
contributors. If there are translations, they'd likely be marked as
somethign like "adapted by translators XYZ from article XYZ by original
authors XYZ under a CC-BY license", though details would need to be decided
if it came up. See this 2008 article
<https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2268932/> for some ideas
floated previously floated. I'll admit I've limited knowledge of
translation practices though, so the project would need advice!

When we publish CC BY SA on Wikipedia, we allow
translation into other
languages without having any control over the translations (but we require
our name to be attached in some fashion). So right now we do all the time.
Most of my academic publications are CC BY which is even more permissive.

Plan S's move to allow ND.
So part of the offer is that an author's article may be translated into
other languages without the original author having any say in the
process?
Surely you would not permit your own articles to
be republished in
another
language with your name still on them and your
having no control over
what
the translation says in your name?
