As far as the Chinese translation goes, You can drop the GPL 3.0 licence, on the grounds that the licence choice is an "or", not an "and". The CC-BY 4.0 prohibits license changes, unless all contributors agree to the change. Under EU law, one can argue that Moral Rights Law requires attribution, and as such, a change to CC-BY-SA 4.0 is mandatory. However, under "The Right To Be Forgotten" legislation, a content creator can require that the work not be attributed to them. In both Europe and North America, translation rights are subsidiary rights. The translated work is a derivative work. As such, technically, the CC-BY license require that all contributors in the original language be listed as contributors to the translated work. You'd need to get their permission, to change from BB-BY to CC-BY-SA. I don't know Chinese (PRC, ROC, Hong Kong, Macau,Tibet, Xinjiang) law. Things may play out there, differently. I am not a lawyer.
