   <title>Primary Titles</title>
+
+  <p>The <em>primary title</em> of a page or section is the one specified in
+  the block context and used for display purpose.  While this title is not
+  an informational title as specified here, it is used as fallback for all
+  informational titles.</p>
 </section>
 <!-- END primary -->

 <!-- BEGIN link -->
 <section id="link">
   <title>Link Titles</title>
+
+  <p>Pages and sections can have multiple link titles.  These are used as
+  alternate content for automatic link text.  When automatic text must be
+  generated for a <code xref="mal_block_link">link</code> element, it is
+  taken first from the link titles, falling back to the primary title if
+  no suitable link title is found.</p>
+
+  <p>You can use the <code>role</code> attribute to specify multiple link
+  titles.  These can be selected using the <code>role</code> attribute of
+  the <code>link</code> element.  This can be used for a variety of purposes.
+  One common purpose is to specify link text for different parts of speech
+  in languages which have case declensions.  Without this feature, it can
+  be difficult to provide grammatically correct automatic link text in
+  some languages.</p>
 </section>

 <!-- BEGIN sort -->
 <section id="sort">
   <title>Sort Titles</title>
+
+  <p>Sort titles allow you to specify alternate text to be used when sorting
+  the page or section.  Certain automatic link sections will sort the nodes
+  they link to.  When this happens, providing a sort title allows you to
+  control how the node is collated.  This is useful for excluding leading
+  articles such as â??anâ?? and â??theâ??.</p>

+
+  <p>Informational titles are not displayed directly, although they will
+  affect the output of any material which links to the given page or
+  section.</p>
+
+  <p>The content model of the <code xref="mal_info">info</code> element
+  allows for any mixture of informational titles.  As such, it is entirely
+  possible for multiple titles to exist for some specified combination of
+  the <code>type</code> and <code>role</code> attributes.  When such an
+  ambiguity arrises, processing tools should select the first informational
+  title that matches the desired criteria.</p>
