	The Preposition Project (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The lexicographer assigns a semantic role name and identifies the usual syntactic function of a prepositional phrase beginning with the preposition in the specific sense (noun postmodifier (1); adverbial adjunct (2a), subjunct (2b), disjunct (2c), or conjunct (2d); and/or verb (3a) or adjective (3b) complement, as described in paragraph 9.1, p.
		In addition to identifying the instances for the lexicographer to use in characterizing the different senses of a preposition, an XML file of the sentences themselves is also generated.
		In this effort, the lexicographer found that the relation of the subsenses to the core senses was based on some small bit of expanded (3) or narrowed (2) meaning, and that figurative extensions (1) did not apply (and are unlikely in general to apply to function words).

	School-text compiler and lexicographer: the cases of
		This measured attitude to regional lexis was shared by some compilers of school-texts from about the mid-1660s to the mid-1680s, none of whom expressly advocated the retention of local words in the language, although including in their spelling-lists a few examples of what Ray considered dialect words.
		Miège as lexicographer does not include dern in his 1677 and 1679 dictionaries, and marks it as, arguably, ‘provincial’ in his Great French Dictionary of 1688, the same year as his grammar.
		In summation it can be said that Coles and Miège in their pedagogical and lexicographical practice shared an inconsistency of approach with relation to the inclusion and marking (if debatably dialect words.

	The Devil's Dictionary: Lexicographer
		For your lexicographer, having written his dictionary, comes to be considered “as one having authority,” whereas his function is only to make a record, not to give a law.
		The natural servility of the human understanding having invested him with judicial power, surrenders its right of reason and submits itself to a chronicle as if it were a statue.
		Let the dictionary (for example) mark a good word as “obsolete” or “obsolescent” and few men thereafter venture to use it, whatever their need of it and however desirable its restoration to favor — whereby the process of impoverishment is accelerated and speech decays.

	James Murray, lexicographer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		This abridged dictionary was actually a cut-down version of a massive work (The New English Dictionary) envisaged by three influential members of the Philological Society, Richard Trench, Herbert Coleridge and Frederick Furnivall, who as early as 1857 had begun collecting words for it.
		All lexicographic principles for the Macmillan-Harper New English Dictionary were the Society’s (mainly Trench’s), and in time, greatly improved by James Murray, they would lay the foundation for the great Oxford undertaking.
		One of these ideals looked back beyond Webster – whose work (1828-64) was currently the dictionary held in highest regard internationally – to Samuel Johnson’s Dictionary a century earlier.
