     <title>Multitouch Touchpad Gestures</title>
     <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
-    <p>Description</p>
+    <p>Multitouch gestures, such as pinch to zoom, or four-finger drag, were first introduced in GNOME 3.14. 
However, this was for touchscreens only. Now, in &gnomeversion;, these gestures can also be used touchpads. 
System-wide gestures can be used to switch applications and workspaces, and to open the Activities Overview. 
Gesture capabilities are also available to applications now, and are expected to make use of them in the 
future.</p>
+    <p>Note that this feature is only available under Wayland.</p>

     <title>Touch Screen Improvements</title>
     <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
-    <p>Description.</p>
+    <p>The ability to select, cut, copy and paste text using a touchscreen has been dramatically improved in 
&gnomeversion;. The handles used to adjust text selections have been made bigger and their look has been 
improved. New popovers provide convenient access to actions, like cut, copy and paste.</p>

     <title>A Better Polari</title>
     <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
-    <p>Description</p>
+    <p>Polari, GNOME's IRC application, has had a number of refinements for &gnomeversion;. Paste service 
integration has been added, so that it is easy to share large blocks of text. Simply paste the text you want 
to share into the chat entry box, and Polari will paste it online and send a link to the channel.</p>
+    <p>Other improvements include a better first run experience, which now guides users through the process 
of creating connections, improved feedback for connection errors, as well as many bug fixes and visual 
enhancements.</p>

   <section id="scrolling">
     <title>Refined Scrolling</title>
     <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
-    <p>Description</p>
+    <p>Scrolling has been a particular area of work. Kinetic scrolling - where scroll movement has inertia, 
and feels physical - now works with touchpads, as  (in the past it only worked on touchscreens).</p>
+    <p>Controls for scrollbars have also been updated for &gnomeversion;:</p>
+    <list>
+      <item><p>Clicking the scrollbar with the primary button (this is the left button by default) jumps to 
that location.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Holding <key>Shift</key> and clicking with the primary button jumps towards the location, one 
page at a time.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Pressing scrollbar with the secondary mouse button gradually scrolls the view in that 
direction.</p></item>
+    </list>
+
+<!-- Details on kinetic scrolling need checking (either with Matthias Clasen or Carlos Garnacho. Was it only 
touchscreens in the past? Is this Wayland-only? Is it with both edge and two-finger scrolling? -->
+<!-- How are the mouse bindings better than what we have before? Ask Matthias! -->
+<!-- Find out what happened with kinetic scrolling for mouse scroll wheels (this was discussed with the 
libinput developers this cycle). -->
