Looks good.

  Comments:
Sounds like a reasonable move. About 10% of the ~260 example sentences are for appointment/date usage.
I'll see up the edit and see if there is agreement. If this goes ahead the お約束 entry should be aligned and some of the sentences reindexed. The currentl selected sentence is for the "date" sense.

I've always felt "appointment/engagement/date" to be distinct enough from "promise" in English to be its own sense. Though it seems of all the refs, only prog/wikt actually separate it.
