Easiest way for the translated stuff I believe is to goto the main .xml file, 
in this case it would be desktopguide.xml. You could do something like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3//EN"
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd" [
<!ENTITY % globalent SYSTEM "../../../libs/global.ent">
%globalent;
<!ENTITY % cdo-C SYSTEM "../../../libs/cdo-C.ent">
%cdo-C;
<!ENTITY % kde SYSTEM "../../libs/kde.ent">
%kde;
<!ENTITY % kde-general 
SYSTEM "/usr/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/obsolete/general.entities">
%kde-general;
<!ENTITY % xinclude SYSTEM "../../../libs/xinclude.mod">
%xinclude;
<!ENTITY language "en">
<!ENTITY wiki-whateverpage 'http://whateverpage' >
]>

However, if you are only going to use the link once or twice throughout the 
documentation, then i would just recommend doing:

<ulink url="http://whateverpage">Whater-wiki</ulink>

Just my 2 cents if I was following this correctly.
