I don't see any element named 'target' in the output, rather the 
contents of the 'source' element is copied to the 'translation' element.

The following stylesheet does that:

<xsl:stylesheet
   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
   version="1.0">

   <xsl:template match="@* | node()">
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
     </xsl:copy>
   </xsl:template>

   <xsl:template match="message/translation[@type = 'unfinished']">
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
       <xsl:value-of select="../source"/>
     </xsl:copy>
   </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
