Removed redundant link and rephrased section edit

The opening sentence of the article was originally the following:

Electric catfish or Malapteruridae is a catfish family in the order Siluriformes.

I changed it to the following:

Electric catfish or Malapteruridae is a is a family of catfishes (order Siluriformes).

I removed the link for "Siluriformes", which is synonymous with "catfish", and rephrased it similarly to the first sentence of Claroteidae. Could anyone please tell me if this was the right thing to do? Additionally, could anyone please tell me if I should add commas around "or Malapteruridae"?

(Edit: Sorry to even ask all of the above except for the final question about adding commas, unless anyone thinks it was worth asking.)--Thylacine24 (talk) 01:49, 25 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
