No problem.

For verifying, you might want to try diffman-git(1). It's provided in
the man-pages repo. If the version of the man-pages package provided by
your distro is >=6.10, you may already have it in your system, and if
not, you can find it as <src/bin/diffman-git> in the repo.
It's documented in a manual page in the same repo, of course.
I don't know if you know about the build system, which also checks a few
common issues in the pages. You can check <CONTRIBUTING.d/lint>.
TL;DR:
$ make -R -j8 -k lint-man build-all check;
(You can ignore anything that's not about the page you're modifying. At
the moment, I see a few issues that I'll need to investigate in a few
pages. For seeing a clean list of what's failing, you can ignore
stderr; see below.)
$ make -R -j24 -k lint-man build-all check 2>/dev/null
