I am working on the open source project, uploaded on GitHub pages. I am writing its wiki pages on GitHub. I want to link the presentation slides uploaded on slideshare.net, related to this open source project.
Can you please advice me - how can I link my presentation slides on slideshare.net with GitHub wiki pages? I want to show a first slide (included title, date, author information) of PPT on GitHub wiki pages.
I am open to move my presentation slides on a site other than slideshare.net.

First, you can simply upload your slides, e.g. . ppt or . pptx, to your repo. You won't be able to see the slides when you click on the PowerPoint filename, but anyone who clicks on View Raw will download the deck.
Open your presentation in PowerPoint for the web. On the File tab of the Ribbon, click Share, and then click Embed. In the Embed box, under Dimensions, select the correct dimensions for the blog or web page. Under Embed Code, right-click the code, click Copy, and then click Close.
Embedding a slideshare presentation involves <iframe>, as mentioned in slideshare FAQ, and that is not supported in a wiki page.
You can see all the markdown supported syntax in "Markdown-Cheatsheet", and that page ends up with an "integration" of a YouTube video: it is actually a picture, embedded in a classic html link.
This could be the easiest solution for you: a picture of the first slide in an html link referencing the actual slideshare page.
But that would mean leaving your wiki page for the slideshare one.
