Sorry about the lack of formatting - I am not sure why that happened. :( To
rephrase, the new features are:

* New "Nearby places that need pictures" UI with direct uploads (and
associated category suggestions)
* Enabled two-factor authentication login
* Enabled viewing of Commons user talk messages
* Real-time location tracking in Nearby
* Improvements to UI of navigation drawer, tutorial, media details view,
login and settings
* Option to nominate picture for deletion in media details view

Best regards,
Josephine
