Of course, it will help to provide a link to thte original.

I think by "appropriate" you may be asking a legal question.
Legal questions are always inappropriate here because we are not lawyers.

However:

Please read the licence.  You will find that you are free to modify
the code and distribute copies of your modified versions to others,
AS LONG AS you retain the original licence and copyright notices.

But this is not legal advice, and I am not a lawyer: please read the
licence.
