Right. I think it is no problem with adding localized manual pages
but before that it needs toolchain which supports various languages
in a consistent way as well as some framework for informing that
"this is out-of-date" to the users in some way. Displaying old
translation via man(1) is not bad if such warning is displayed
together.
