<upd_detl>I suggest adding レベル to ENAMDICT as well:
Revell
レベル (模型メーカー) - アメリカの模型メーカー(Revell Inc.)。日本への輸入代理店はハセガワ。
ドイツレベル - ドイツの模型メーカー(Revell GmbH &amp; Co. KG)。日本への輸入代理店はハセガワ。
(Wikipedia)</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>1) As a noun, "revel" is rarely used in English, and I doubt that レベル has that meaning ("noisy 
celebrations" - Oxford Advanced Learner's). And I have found very little evidence of it in Japanese 
dictionaries. So I suggest deleting that sense.
.
2) Sense #1 is actually 4 or 5 different senses, but they are all part of the meaning of English word 
"level" so I grouped them together, but they could be separated if you want to be strict about partitioning 
senses.
.
3) Regarding sense #4 (flat; level)
Various dictionaries give 水平 as one sense. Presumably this is adjectival but I'm not sure whether it's 
adj-no or adj-na or both.
.
4) Regarding sense #3 minor release (software versioning)
富士通が開発したソフトウェアにおいて、バージョンより小さな製品改良を表す数値。「V1.1 L10」(バージョン1.1 レベル10)のように表記する。
[Wikipedia]

major.minor.revison scheme ... In principle, in subsequent releases, the major number is increased when 
there are significant jumps in functionality, the minor number is incremented when only minor features or 
significant fixes have been added, and the revision number is incremented when minor bugs are fixed.

<upd_detl>I'll put it back at the end. Lots of hits, but mostly for things like names of bands, gangs, etc. All the Tanaka sentences are using sense 1.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I think レブル can go. It's not in the refs and most online hits are irrelevant.
The kokugos have a "水平面。水平線" sense but it's not adjectival so I've dropped sense 4 and made a new (broader) sense using some of the sense 1 glosses.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>OK, but I'll propose レブル for jmnedict as it's the Honda "Rebel" motorbike, which is probably where its n-grams count originates.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Splitting out "rebel".
My refs don't mention floors or layers.
The source for the software versioning sense is Wikipedia, which says it's a term used by Fujitsu. I don't think it's worth including. Not seeing any evidence of more widespread use.
I think レヴェル can be hidden. Web results are mostly "Revel".</upd_detl>
