OK, back where it started.

Not so quickly realised that this entry is meant to be the させる made from the サ変 さ　＋　せる rather than the auxiliary verb. Reverting changes. 
Perhaps a note or search only Kanji form could be added to prevent similar confusion in the future.

Quickly realised that the previous notes were incomplete, sorry about that.
Opted to use 未然形 rather than -nai stem due to the existence of the old せさせる form that hardly sees any use; せ would not be commonly identified with a -nai stem. Dismissed irrealis or imperfective since most people will not know those terms where as 未然形 can be looked up within the dictionary.

Reverso divides them quite solidly on screening/checkup.

No references were provided to support the previous submission.
GG5 has a combined entry, but the examples tend to associate 検診 with screening. Other JEs split, but have overlapping glosses.
We could split the entries, but I think just having two senses with notes probably is better. I don't see a case for 健診 being an abbreviation.

Is this... an ARGUMENT?! IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
Anyhow, a little redundancy to make sure something sticks has never hurt a dam, but I can see your point.

"indicates possibility of an action" adds nothing but fluff considering the glosses relay the same semantic information.

Adding notes with the intent of further clarifying function.

Changing both senses to v2a-s.
Addressing the points in 2020-09-01 20:16:58, This is considered by every Japanese source I have looked at as the only remaining 二段 verb in modern Japanese and it does conjugate, even if the only provable instances of conjugation are the identical 連体形 and 終止形, both forms are still formally distinguished by 国語 grammars by their use much like english tells apart past 'read' from non-past 'read' by pronunciation. Non-provable instances of conjugation would be 未然形 and 連用形 as they would be completely indiscernible from える. Finally, there is the provable case of the 仮定形, but it is almost never used: ありうれば returns measly 33 results from the N-gram and a google search only 407 - though you will see that it is indeed the 仮定形 if you stop to read some of phrases found by google.

The refs are inconsistent about whether the first sense is [vi] or [vt]. Iwakoku and sankoku have it tagged as both.

Marcus commented on GitHub:
>> I think hiding away the type of rare or obscure kanji that are still included in one or two kokugos with [sK] rather than tagging them as [rK] can lead to confusion

This seems to be one such entry. I don't think there are too many others.

In addition to meikyo, "胎む" is also recorded in kanjipedia and gendai reikai. I don't think there's a problem with making it [rK].

You can find even more kanji forms (胚む・娠む・姙む・肧む) for this word if you look through various kanwas. I think we have to draw a line somewhere.

Thanks for the comments.
We could have extended discussions on where and how to represent morphology and etymology, but these comments are NOT the appropriate forum. Please feel free to raise an issue in the Github forum if you wish. 
https://www.edrdg.org/wiki/index.php/Editorial_policy#Issues_Forum

This is strictly morphology that the reader can apply to their use of the language, for example: knowing it is made from ん and what ん derives from allows them to correctly predict the existence of ませぬ - or - if someone learns of ぬ through ません and learns from ぬ's entry its function/meaning and how it is morphologically added to other words, then they would be equipped to locate and understand every single instance of ぬ or ん they find from thereon, as well as to use it themselves. Is this not a benefit for the reader?
This is in line with the editorial policy that lists "where there is a derivational relationship between words that it is useful to highlight, e.g. between かっけー and 格好いい, or between オケる and 空オケ." as a cross-reference that can enhance the value of the entry; this is fundamentally the same as the given examples - and with ぬ being a productive morpheme, morphology notes and references would be even more useful.
Now, I do agree that it is not all etymology and/or morphology that should be added: here there is a positive impact for the learner's understanding and practice. Contrast this with something such as adding "changed over time from まゐらす to まらする, まする, culminating in ます" to the ます entry. The latter would be a truly useless historical etymology that does not help readers to understand what something means, how it comes to mean it, nor how to use it.


I understand that the dictionary is not here to teach morphology, but it is here to teach Japanese and morphology just cannot not be useful in such a highly agglutinative language - in fact, it is not only useful, it is required for its use: it is the necessity of morphology that led you to add "after the -masu stem of a verb" to this very entry, it is morphology that dictates we have separate verb classes and it is morphology that distinguishes verbs from adjectives and tells you how to use each. 
If we are ignoring any mention of etymological and/or morphological information and concern ourselves only with self-contained semantic/functional minimalism, we might as well remove: the left half of the note in this entry along with all 3 cross-references, the cross-reference to 格好いい in かっけー, as well as any other similarly substantiated note or reference in any and all entries. We could even remove the tags for 動詞 and 形容詞 and neatly bundle them under a category for 述語 since that is the all-encompassing superset. Nonetheless, I think you will agree that would make the dictionary less useful as it would lose much of its power to teach usage - which directly affects ability to teach identification and thus, comprehension - and completely lose any information about derivative connections, all because of morphology and etymology.

Do you believe that usage, identification, and relations are not something that a cross-linguistic dictionary should seek to teach? Is it not what the reader seeks to learn? If you do think so, then what does it seek to teach? Raw semantic correspondence? If you give yourself the bother to think about these questions, consider: Every time someone conjugates something, they are engaging with morphology. Every time you add an [adj] tag to something, you are teaching them about it.

Since we're not attempting to explain the etymology.

How would the cross-reference to ん be redundant? As it is, there is no way for one to know that the ん in ません is the negative ぬ・ん from simply looking at this entry.

I agree with Robin on the etymology, etc. The xref to ん is quite redundant.

A Consideration that occurred when editing the entry for させる, using -nai stem for the usage note in this verb will most likely lead the reader to incorrectly believe that it connects to する as しぬ, rather than せぬ.
Perhaps the term -nai stem for this entry should be replaced with 未然形, though that makes it ambiguous as　五段 have お and あ and サ変 have さ、し、せ and arguably しょ.
Maybe changing it to "after せ～ form of suru class verbs or -nai stem of other verbs; negates verbs in non-past tense" would address the issue?

Removing 2 as it should be its own entry: they have different meanings, conjugation paradigms and etymologies; added note to better describe function.

Questioning: Is the suffix tag on auxiliaries that formally connect a to verb stem and are never added after nouns/nominals necessary? 
Looking at the definition for 接尾語 in daijs,  meikyo and daijr, the defining characteristic of a 接尾語 seems to be whether or not they can be attached directly to 体言 or things applicable to them(such as the root of an adjective or adjectival verb). 
For example, the 助動詞 らしい is listed as connecting to the 終止形 of adjectives and verbs as well as to 体言 in both daijs and daijr, but the らしい registered as a 接尾語 says only「名詞・副詞，または形容動詞の語幹などに付いて...」(Note: quote is from daijr which does not nominally cite adjective roots but daijs does).
It is possible that a revision for the criteria for the suffix tag is in order.

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.

Entry was missing the information that ず can form a conjunction.
Added second sense as terminal ず can still be found in set phrases as well as certain media.
Opted for 連用形 and 終止形 over translations as the original Japanese can likely be researched with less potential of wrong results than something such as connective form or terminal form, they can also be looked up within the dictionary whereas translations cannot.

I would question what the typical user is like, what they look for when using a dictionary, and whether the first two questions can be reliably answered at all.

Anyhow, disregard the morphology for a moment, I feel the functional aspects of the explanatory gloss and the [conj] tag were overlooked. There is nothing in the entry to suggest that ず is a conjunction, and not treating it as one will yield the wrong understanding of a phrase. 

The translation "Not doing" is a progressive negation while ず is a negation, a conjunction, and only progressive if the structure it is negating is. "Not" is a closer translation, but is still missing the conjunction part.
Going off of this entry as is, one could very well take a 食べず as "not eating" instead of "does not/will not eat and..."
Furthermore, with only an [aux-v] tag, a reader will most likely think this is the 連体形・終止形 dictionary form that ends a sentence or pre-modifies a noun. This is only worsened by ず ending with a -u, which is usually a characteristic of those forms.
That is not good as treating it as the dictionary form will analyse something such as「驚きもせず私達をながく見つめていた」with 驚きもせず as a premodifier for 私達. 

I tried to to address this with the notes on the 連用形, the tag and the explanatory gloss, I can see why all at once may seem superfluous but hold that at least one is required to solve the matter.
I will insist on the addition of the tag and the explanatory note, with the latter either as a complement or substitute for the translation as "not doing" does not do a good job of relaying what this word does. 
If nothing else, at least the tag should be kept since it is what the word is - but the note instead of or along with the translation could be immediately useful to anyone who does not know what a conjunction is.

As for morphology: it already occupies a place in many entries, notes like the -nai stem note here are morphological in nature and I can only imagine these are accepted while others are not as they allow identification through the morphology of the surrounding items. 
With that standard in mind, since the current entry runs into the suru class -nai stem problem of leaving a reader unable to identify せず and instead implicating しず, I propose changes to it in line with what was done to せる・させる.

I don't think this should be an entry, either. It's no different from 食べまへん except it's more common in the ngrams. あらへん and かまへん are different and worth keeping because you couldn't arrive at あらへん from ない, and かまへん is irregular (if it were regular, it'd be かまわへん)

If it is to be, then let us do it all the way.
Still, I will make one final argument against it: compounds from which the meaning is easily deductible by the constituent morphemes and in which those morphemes themselves are discernable by the morphology of the word (no contractions, etc.) do not require their own entry and have little reason to be given one; under these circumstances, it would be the same as adding a dedicated entry for every verb with ない or ぬ or any other helper attached to them. Would that do any harm? No, but it is fundamentally superfluous.

In any case, should this be accepted, I will be conducting identical changes to あらへん and others of the previously given list as they too are missing the kanji and cross-references.

"How do you say "Black history month (kanji please for homework) " in Japanese?"
https://hinative.com/questions/15380453
"How do you say this in Japanese? This month is Black History Month! ..."

Seems like an established translation. Convenient for reverse look-ups plus it's nice to be able to provide the reading for novices.

大修館 四字熟語辞典 has it, but not any other refs like Sanseidō or Gakken's yoji dictionaries. I'll propose a 「花顔」 entry.

I don't see this in any refs other than Jitenon.

Our current policy is to reject extremely rare yojijukugo that are not recorded by major Japanese dictionaries.
See comments on deleted entries 2858745, 2857617, 2858355.

Indeed.
