Bug description:
Binary package hint: ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu

The last slide of the Ubuntu-Installer-Slideshow shows two URL linking to ubuntu.com (see http://people.ubuntu.com/~dylanmccall/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/ubuntu/slides/documentation.html).

In my humble opinion it would be much more helpful, if the URL refered to the corresponding native-language supporting-website instead of linking to ubuntu.com. There are a lot of people who are not able to speak, read or understand English very well.

Linking to the respective native-language supporting-website (e.g. for German users the slide should link to wiki.ubuntuusers.de and forum.ubuntuusers.de), the non-english-speaking user should get a much better support – thus feeling "at home" instantly.

Even in the 21st century language is a big barrier for a lot of people worldwide. People installing Ubuntu and stumbling over those avoidable annoyance won't get frustrated from the beginning.

The above mentioned surely applies for all other languages associated with a supporting forum/wiki.
