A separate link (which is linked on the download page) is fine. I didn't mean that it should all be explaned on the download page.
The only issue with linking to the wiki is it currently reads:

"What should I choose - 32 or 64 bit?
Unless you have specific reasons to choose 32-bit, we recommend 64-bit. "

So a user will see on ubuntu.com/download "32 bit (recommended)", yet should they look into more info, they'll see the opposite, recommending 64bit.

If, instead, a new page is created, it could then spell out why 32bit is recommended. So far throughout this bug the only reason I've seen is Flash.
