You can make the process slightly quicker by adding a contact named Wifi Settings and populate the URL field with prefs:root=WIFI. Once you do that you just need to say "wifi settings" into siri and it brings up the contact card (just like if you said a name). The link is clickable and takes you right to the wifi settings page of the settings app.

Also works with:

Blue Tooth - prefs:root=General&path=Bluetooth
Sounds: prefs:root=Sounds
Brightness: prefs:root=Brightness
Airplane Mode: prefs:root=Airplane_Mode
Wallpapers: prefs:root=Wallpaper

You can also do it with apps:
Youtube and put youtube:// for the URL

Don't say "in reminders". Try saying "add milk to grocery list". When I add the words "in reminders" it doesn't work for me either. Seems like this may be one of those things that requires you to say something very specifically.
Get Icon Project and you can make icons containing these shortcuts and put them into a folder!
