 ## union
 
-Takes input [(Multi)Polygon(s)][1] and returns a combined polygon. If the input polygons are not contiguous, this function returns a [MultiPolygon][2] feature.
+Takes a collection of input polygons and returns a combined polygon. If the
+input polygons are not contiguous, this function returns a multi-polygon
+feature.
 
 ### Parameters
 
-*   `features` **[FeatureCollection][3]<([Polygon][1] | [MultiPolygon][2])>**&#x20;
+*   `features` **[FeatureCollection][1]<([Polygon][2] | [MultiPolygon][3])>** input polygon features
 *   `options` **[Object][4]** Optional Parameters (optional, default `{}`)
 
-    *   `options.properties` **[Object][4]** Translate Properties to output Feature (optional, default `{}`)
-*   `polygon1` **[Feature][5]<([Polygon][1] | [MultiPolygon][2])>** input Polygon features
+    *   `options.properties` **[GeoJsonProperties][5]** properties to assign to output feature (optional, default `{}`)
 
 ### Examples
 
 ```javascript
-var poly1 = turf.polygon([[

-Returns **[Feature][5]<([Polygon][1] | [MultiPolygon][2])>** a combined [Polygon][1] or [MultiPolygon][2] feature, or null if the inputs are empty
+Returns **([Feature][5]<([Polygon][2] | [MultiPolygon][3])> | null)** a combined polygon or multi-polygon feature, or null if there were no input polygons to combine
