Most are using command line anyway and light weight window managers
without a desktop environment are very popular among Arch users.
Most, if not all Arch users prefer Arch Linux blue painted bike sheds:

Assuming that somebody has got no second computer with Internet access
maybe or maybe not a few information is or isn't missing, but since an
experienced Linux user knows that maybe PPPoE is required, visiting the
related wiki before starting the installation could be done. Taking a
brief look at the new guide, I couldn't find something missing. If
somebody should notice that something is missing, why not simply
participate at the discussion at
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Talk:Installation_guide ?

Everybody is able to participate at the Arch wiki, nobody first needs to
beg to become member of a special group, as it is required for the
Ubuntu wiki/help pages. If you notice that the new beginners guide
should be incomplete or too hard to understand, then help maintaining
the guide.
