One of the work items on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-clean-up-language-support was to prepare Language Support Help for being translated. However, since that item was decided upon at UDS-O (http://pad.ubuntu.com/uds-o-desktop-o-clean-up-language-support), it has been decided that the l-s UI will be replaced by the g-c-c UI for languages and locales during the 12.04 development circle, and the work item in the blueprint has been dropped.

I'm currently working on preventing that language/locale settings functionality is unintentionally dropped, even if a few new packages (accountsservice, g-c-c, lightdm, g-s-d) have become involved. Nevertheless, if we would have the help document be translated now, due to the planned switch to the g-c-c UI most of that work would still likely need to be redone a few months later. Consequently we'd better stick to an English only Language Support Help also in Oneiric.

Let's consider this bug report to have served its purpose.
