We have merged all concepts stemming from sources (1) to (6), and set relations between them, so that terms can be represented as nodes in a single graph, with SKOS relations as edges.

In a second step, we have (7) extended the vocabulary with a [[Item:Q14510|manually revised subset]] ([https://lexbib.elex.is/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Item:Q14510&limit=500 members]) of salient term candidates, extracted from a corpus compiled using all English full texts present in the collection used for [[Elexifinder]] version 2 (Spring 2021). We have then extended the vocabulary further, using term extraction results from subsets of our English full texts. This has been done for the field of [[Item:Q15007|dictionary digitization]] (narrower of [[Item:Q14318|dictionary making]]).

While (1), (2), (5) and (6) are "top-down" designed models, (3), (4) and (7) are collections that can be characterized as built "bottom-up". Terms stemming from the latter have been connected to terms stemming from the former using [[Property:P72|"skos:broader"]]. The criterion for defining broader-relations has been the article indexation point-of-view. That is, if an article mentions a term, that implies that it deals with the broaders of that term as well. This allows to refine faceted searches in [[Elexifinder]]. For example, a search result containing articles that talk about [[Item:Q15506|"grammatical case"]] can be refined to articles talking about [[Item:Q15061|"ergative case"]].
