It's not exactly a typo -- it's more that we've been a bit inconsistent
here.

"Fedora Cloud" shouldn't, but "base image" should. In fact, if
it
helps, it might be appropriate to put the translated word cloud into
"base image" — that is, "Fedora Cloud [foundational cloud system
image]".
Thanks for clearing it up!
I'm far from an expert here, but "image" should use the
word used for
virtual machine images, if that's different from photographs. (In
English, it's "image" in the sense of "exact reproduction /
likeness"
rather than "picture".)
Fortunately they are different in Chinese :)
