If it is a document, then it is better to choose a more appropriate
license targeted towards content. The close equivalent for content is
the Creative Commons Attribute Share Alike license

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

Nevertheless, if you must use GPL, the license itself has a section on
how to apply it.
