I confirmed that all added changes are reflected in documents but I haven't checked whether the added changes cover all missing items... @ianmcook Could you review the change?

@msebbah Could you use our PR template instead of removing it entirely next time?

[ianmcook]

Thanks for doing this @msebbah. This looks good to me except for the order of the new entries. See my comments above about that.

@kou This covers all the missing items that I was able to identify during 30+ minutes of searching.

In the Scalars section of arrays.rst, I just noticed that some things are missing:

• NullScalar
• Decimal256Scalar
• FixedSizeListScalar
• JsonScalar
• UuidScalar
• Bool8Scalar

These all appear in https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/main/python/pyarrow/scalar.pxi but are missing here.

@msebbah could you please add these, in roughly the same order as they appear in various other lists? Thanks!

[msebbah]

Hi @ianmcook, it should be better now, could you review the PR, please ?
