[edit] How better to present these dates?

In the Kugyō section:

..................................................... lifetime, 804-872
........ time in office (857-872)
.......... Daijō-daijin (857-872) Fujiwara Yoshifusa　(藤原良房), 804-872

In the intial edit, I intended to present the dates during which someone held a specific court title, but that now seems too ambitious for a start-level article. The intention had been to explain the sequence of serial officeholders with these dates.

Instead, it's probably better to simply list the birth/death dates. Arguably, it might be possible (or even preferable) to include both sets of dates as the information becomes available ...? --Ooperhoofd 17:40, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
