Lintian overrides are not supposed to be used this way. You should only override a Lintian message when the message is incorrect, but is not a bug in Lintian (i.e. your package is a special case of some kind which isn't worth encoding in Lintian). Overriding correct messages this way makes it harder to scan packages for problems. Please remove these overrides and just put up with the warnings until you've written man pages.
