On reflection, I agree it's probably better to clean up the indexing of the examples for 置く・おく.

I still don't think it's needed. As an auxiliary verb, おく can be used with all sorts of verbs. する is just one example.
If we have this, we'd need to add the other auxiliary verb senses as well. Daijs has 2, GG5 has 3, Daijr has 5.

中辞典: sense #15 of its 置く entry:
《「…しておく」の形で》
¶(そのままに)しておく leave a thing as it is; let a thing alone [be]
にしておく	834818
にしておきます	374855
にしておいた	188102
にしておいて	363867

I take the point about the に. I think it's worth mentioning, though. Maybe this works.
The original is indexed in 40 sentences. I'll reindex to this version if the edit is accepted.

I don't think this should be an entry. The pattern is AをBにしておく. "にしておく" itself is not an expression. The に is a particle but this entry gives the impression that it's part of the verb.

>I've seen editors in the past refer to the oldness of kokugo citations, but from my understanding, Kojien intentionally records the *earliest* known usage of a word.

I know this is true for Nikk, so probably for koj too. Daij OTOH don't normally go for the oldest citation, but they both have archaic examples for all senses here, so I'm not sure.

* wisdom: many birds; various kinds of birds.

Hmm, I think it'd be strange for Meikyo to explicitly tag the other two senses but not the first one. The first sense is also in Shinmeikai. We usually look at presence in these two kokugos to determine modernity of senses. It's not in the usual JEs, but it is in Wisdom, and presence in JEs is also another factor we use. It's also in NHK Accent dictionary.

I've seen editors in the past refer to the oldness of kokugo citations, but from my understanding, Kojien intentionally records the *earliest* known usage of a word. Don't have a source for this, but I've never exactly seen modern citations from Kojien. Daijisen, in contrast, cites a 20th-century poet.

Koj, Daijr/s

When Rene amended it in 2008 he added "arch" to sense 1 - Koj quotes 万葉集 for it. I think they're all arch.
Messy to do that extraction.  There are about 1200 multi-sense entries with "arch" on the first one. Most have it on all. I can dig further I guess.

Jim, would it be possible to make a list of all jmdict entries where the first sense is arch, but one or more subsequent senses aren't? Arch should never lead in such entries, right?

サンキュー and ファックユー are expressions commonly used in Japanese. ロールタイド is not. The only use I can find in Japanese is as a racehorse name. In the latter context I have added it to the name dictionary, with a comment that it is also the University of Alabama's rally chant.
