didn't the math tag make it clear?

The meaning of the word is not clear from the word "term". As 
it stands, it could mean "term" as in "terminology". Also, 
this is a productive suffix in mathematics. For example, 圧力

Basically correct. I wish the note on sense 1 was shorter.

Changing the entry to match せる・させる as it had the same problems as the previous version of that entry.

Unrelated to the above, also changed the note on [2] as it is incorrect；られる is still used as the potential for 来る as こられる and as the potential for certain サ変 where the verb is made from one kanji + する and thus できる does not apply.
This includes verbs such as 決する→決せられる and the ザ変 感ずる→感ぜられる. 
Hence, in modern Japanese, use as the potential of 五段 is the only case where it can be said to have truly fallen into complete disuse.

I think this entry rather pushes the boundaries, but it's been around for quite a while like this. I'd leave it.

What about dropping 接続 notes entirely?  They belong to grammars instead of dictionaries.
Also, the kana-based traditional analysis is unnecessarily complicated.
The term 未然形/imperfective form is ambiguous in case of godan and sahen verbs
while the term "-nai stem" incorrectly selects the し form of sahen instead of さ required by れる.
I would prefer phonological analyses like "godan -u → -areru (-wareru after vowel), ichidan -ru → -rareru, kuru → korareru, suru → sareru", but that's already in the conjugation tables

Entries like this make me feel tired.

I think this is OK.

daijs, daijr

Previous note had the following issues: 
1. Made no mention of せる connecting to サ変 nor of させる connecting to カ変 and to the original 未然形 of サ変.
2. Using the term imperfective form to refer to the 未然形 is not good idea as the same term is sometimes used to refer to verbs in the non-past form.
   I have tried to address both of the above issues by adding a mention to カ変 and changing the terminology to -nai stem where applicable.  However, I felt the need to try to specify the inflection for サ変 as -nai stem does not clearly indicate さ nor せ, and saying irrealis or 未然形 would leave it ambiguous between 2-4 options.

3. In "Senses 1-3 can be abbreviated as す" the "Senses 1-3" part can be removed as those are all senses in the entry. I have chosen to remove that altogether as this can be addressed with an entry for the abbreviation itself, similar to how it is done with ねー for ない.

4. The description of the させる・せる that means permission found in [2] is misleading as "having been granted" only applies to させられる, させてもらう, and their like: causative-passive or causative-benefactive constructions. This is a problem as the meaning of permission occurs even when せる・させる is by itself: 食べさせる can be someone physically forcing someone to eat, or it could just be someone giving someone food or allowing then to do so by some others means.
I have changed its definition accordingly and have also removed the note as keeping those examples without examples of せる・させる used in isolation may lead readers to believe that causative-passive/benefactive constructions are only causative constructions. I have also removed the [hum] tag as the permissive sense is not inherently humble and I imagine it was only there due to the aforementioned conflation of this meaning with causative-benefactive forms.

Minor changes: changed "causative" to "causative voice" so readers may more easily research the term if needed, and changed ～あら(さ)せられる to あら〜せられる as both options cannot exist simultaneously and I doubt that who wrote this intended the verb to be 荒らす.
 
Notes: Though せさせる for サ変 is all but gone from modern standard Japanese, the forms ぜさせる and ぜられる are still considered the grammatically correct forms for the derived ザ変 verbs; however, those forms are extremely rare as ずる verbs have been supplanted by their じる counterparts and are infrequent themselves, albeit not yet gone.
Aside from that, I opted to use サ変 and カ変 instead of "suru/kuru class" in order to slightly shorten the usage note.

OK.

That works.

pretty sure 五段 verbs don't have a "ょ form", and i don't read that phrase as the translation given.  more like 
"connects to godan verbs, i-adjectives, na-adjectives, and auxiliary verbs whose imperfective form ends with ろ or ょ".

Is Osamu's comment correct? The Wiki articles says: "五段活用の動詞と形容詞・形容動詞と未然形の最後が「ろ」「ょ」で終わる助動詞に接続する。"

Saw as よお for sense  4. suggest splitting out 4 and 5 together with よー

No further comments. Closing.

Fine, but I suggest trimming back the notes as they rather swamp the entry. The "食べる→食べよう" spells out the context.

Thanks for the clarification. I was going to argue these senses shouldn't be included because it's a conjugation for only a limited set 
of verb classes (一段 and する/くる?) and we don't have similar entries for -そう, -とう, etc. which should be equally valid... but I 
realized these senses are actually included in daijs' and daijr's よう entries and we do actually have an entry for "た" ("indicates past 
tense") in JMDict as well. 
_
My preference would still be to follow GG5's example to not include these senses and also not have an entry for た, but I guess that'd be 
a topic for the mailing list instead of the comment section of this one entry.
_
In the meanwhile, I've tried improve the 3 senses because I don't think the definitions/notes were very clear. I've moved the previous 
glosses into usage notes and added actual glosses. To what extent the glosses are helpful, I'm not sure, but until the separate issue of 
glossless senses are resolved, maybe this will do. I also moved the previous sense 1 to sense 3 as I think it's the least common aux-v 
usage (if that's indeed the correct PoS).
_
"verb stem" - is this the right term? I forget
