Flags are considered as the symbol of a nation, instead of a language. Use flags to represent languages makes people feel offended sometimes (verbally or politically). What's more, some languages are widely spoken around the world. For instance, Chinese is spoken in China, Singapore, Chinese Hong Kong, etc, so do English, choosing only one flag to represent these languages may offend speakers in other countries.

The PR removes flags before the translations.

@chemio9 thank you for opening this PR. You made some great points and I'd prefer to not offend people with this project, so if you can update this so it's current and fix the merge conflict, I'd be happy to approve this change. No worries at all if you're not interested for any reason. Thanks again for you contribution!
