They have to attribute it properly. And they have to keep our
legends. (Which they may not have gotten quite right, and is one of
the things the trust will need to make sure they do get right.)
Given that the wording says "portions", I do not see that we can
complain about their copying several portions.
I believe there's still a distinction between copying/publishing/etc.
"portions", and creating a derivative work. Changing the meaning of
the quoted text is arguably producing a derivative work.
