+<xref type="see" seq="2785620">口を尖らせる・くちをとがら</xref>

It's a fair point. GG5 has a combined entry for 尖らす and尖らせる (both transitive), and 口を尖らせる gets nearly 10 times as many hits as 口を尖らす.
I'll think about this, and I'll also add an example using 口を尖らせる.

See below.

I have not altered the above, but I am picking up that the usage is likely to be "口を尖らせる; 口をとがらせる(くちをとがら)" as much as the above. Google search seems to show more hits for causability as opposed to the plain verb. Perhaps the two could be combined in one entry. Or, maybe, one should just accept that the plain verb is the basis. However, if causability is the natural idiom then it is as much the idiom as the plain verb.

+<gloss>lower garment (e.g. jeans, slacks, skirt)</gloss>

I agree with Rene that "if the change to singular is made for トップス, it should 
be made here too". 
.
In addition, I felt it was better to have an example of a lower garment which 
does not have two legs, such as a skirt. Otherwise, one might wonder whether 
something like a skirt is considered to be a ボトムス.
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ボトムス
.
Technically, ボトムス is wasei Eigo, since a "bottom" is "the part of a two-piece 
garment such as a tracksuit or bikini that covers the lower body" (Encarta), 
which is not what ボトムス means in Japanese (it doesn't have to be part of a two-
piece garment).

In Japanese "ボトムス" clearly has much wider application than "bottoms" has in English. I think it's probably misleading to gloss it as "bottom" or "bottoms" as their meaning is much narrower.

Definition #1 gives the English plural form, which I imagine should only be the case if the word is 
always plural. But トップス is often used to refer to a single top.
