I think it's OK. A lot of "vs" stuff is difficult to gloss cleanly.

Tidy-up.

I'm never sure what to do with senses like 2 and 3 (adverbs that are almost always [vs]).
"To be tidy", etc. is needlessly messy in my opinion so I favour adjective glosses but then the glosses don't agree with the initial PoS tag.
Is this mismatch OK?
