This sense isn't in the kokugos but it's very common (also used in the example sentence displayed on WWWJDIC).
I've changed my mind about the note I wrote; it wasn't clear. Probably better to have no note at all and instead use a different PoS tag. We "aux" on some similar entries. How this PoS should be used is still an open discussion on the mailing list, but I'll go with it for now.

I think having "if it is not ..." on sense 1 is somewhat confusing. I understand the reasoning for doing it (having read the discussion below), but semantically, it belongs with the other sense.
I think it would be better to ignore the 無い/ない distinction, and instead generalise the sense 2 glosses so that they cover both verb and adjective use.

Swapping headwords to put the more common first. 

Cut-over is sometimes hyphenated, but I'm dubious that it is used with the {comp} meaning as two words.  Google will suggest you got it wrong if you search on it as two words ...

+"problems at cutover" -> Did you mean: +"problems at cutover"

I think this could benefit from some [expl] glosses.  It seems that quite a few Japanese speakers are confused about what カットオーバー means, and it's probably the same for English speakers with 'cutover'.

I think it should stay where it's been for years. It's a bit like 国際連合 - could be in JMNEdict, but OK in JMdict.

I'm not opposed to it going into either one.  kojien has: 共産主義インターナショナル, 社会主義インターナショナル, 第一インターナショナル, 第二インターナショナル, 第三インターナショナル, and they should all probably go to the same place.  第四インターナショナル doesn't get an entry for whatever reason, but it should probably be added too

I believe katakana still comes second. Then in wwwjdic, the [uk] tag signals 
that a kana reading is to be displayed ~before~ the kanji.  Because a katakana 
reading is also present, katakana becomes the headword for display 
purposes.  That was my understanding of Jim's last email on the subject.  At 
least sticking to that would make the dictionary more consistent, because 
almost all of the many species that I've added over the past four years have 
come directly from dictionaries, and therefore they all have kanji headwords.  
I've always added a [uk] and placed hiragana before katakana.  So unless 
there's a batch conversion to flip all of those entries around, I think it should 
stay hiragana-katakana.  (And I think that makes more sense from a 
dictionary standpoint anyway.)

I have found support that 燕魚 (ツバメウオ) is Platax teira.

三日月燕魚 is ミカヅキツバメウオ which is Platax boersii.

But, that said, 燕 is a kind of bird... which makes me wonder if the Japanese 
experienced confusion due to the term "batfish", which is really just one 
genus of the spadefish family.  They certainly do not fly...  "batfish" is 
confusing actually.  Its also used for a type of benthic deepwater fish who 
walks on its bent fins and lacks a swim bladder.  The bent fin-legs resemble 
bat wings.  Very nasty ugly looking fish that looks nothing at all like a 
spadefish.  Also the Katakana now leads, no?

OK, I'll let this one go in. I emailed a GG5 person about the bad gloss.

I'm happy to mark the second sense as [obsc].  FWIW, there does seem to be some confusion about the species names for sense 1.  'Platax teira' is the Tiera batfish, but the name 'Platax orbicularis' was formerly misapplied to it.  'Platax orbicularis' is the orbicular batfish, but the name 'Platax pinnatus' was formerly misapplied to that.  'Platax pinnatus' is the 'dusky batfish'...  According to Wikipedia, the Yahoo encyclopedia, and James's sources: Platax pinnatus=アカククリ(junior synonym='Platax melanosoma').  So GG5 would seem to be wrong about ツバメウオ meaning 'Platax pinnatus'.  Contrary to James's sources, Yahoo Encyclopedia calls ツバメウオ 'Platax orbicularis', but most hits disagree and call it 'Platax teira' (as submitted).  Yahoo encyclopedia calls 'Platax teira' ミカヅキツバメウオ, but most web hits call that 'Platax boersii', which is the 'golden spadefish'.  In summary, who knows.  But I'm inclined to leave it the way it was submitted.

I have to agree with Rene on this as Kojien and Daijirin are reflecting current Japanese usage (which is sloppy, but that's languages for you.) I'm not sure the つばめうお is associated with flying fish, but the kanji is. BTW, for 燕魚(batfish) GG5 adds: "Platax pinnatus". Have they got it wrong?

Stick a fork in it, it's done.

Jim has expressed a preference for it as hiragana-katakana.  It's been sitting here as a proposal forever, so I suggest we approve it as hiragana-katakana (like the vast majority of other species that have kanji names).  If we decide to go the katakana-hiragana route, there will have to be a batch conversion, and that will take care of this entry anyway.

You should read/search the users' guide so you know the proper format for submitting x-refs, and especially parts of speech, etc.

PoS go in square brackets (not parentheses), x-refs are done using [see=...], and restrictions are done using [restr=...]

You should actually be getting some kind of warning if you're submitting without a correctly formatted PoS.
