I'm for maintaining **only** the English version from install guide as
the official version. We could not look on each translated version if
they really follow word-by-word the English version or so...

Also a "responsibility" for errors we should have only for the English
version.
I'm also for: we put only the English version on the install images.
If sone need a translated version he should obtain it from wiki or
country related Arch-Site (ex. archlinux.de etc.)
