First time editing a disambiguation page, asking for review[edit]

This page originally began

Madoc or Madog was a legendary Welsh prince who allegedly discovered America in 1170.

Both are used as Welsh masculine given names, diminutive forms of the Welsh name Aed. Either may refer to:

That didn't make sense, logically -- the first line said the name belonged to one person, the prince, while the rest of the article talked about other people. And what does "both" refer to -- the first sentence talks about a single person, not a pair of persons or a pair of names per se. So I changed the second sentence to "Both names are also used as... " and tightened up the writing by combining the second and third sentences into a single one. However, this is the first time I've edited a disambiguation pages, and I get the sense from the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts that the rules of editing are a lot stricter on disambiguation pages, so if anyone with more experience can review it I'd appreciate it.AnneTG (talk) 20:56, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
