How better to present these dates?
In the Kugyō section:

.................................................... lifetime, 880-949 ... time in office (930-942) ........... Sesshō (930-942), Fujiwara no Tadahira　(藤原忠平),　880-949

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.
 * Sesshō, Fujiwara no Tadahira　(藤原忠平),　930-942.
 * Kampaku, Fujiwara no Tadahira　(藤原忠平), 942-946.
 * Daijō-daijin, Fujiwara no Tadahira　(藤原忠平), 936-949.
 * Sadaijin, Fujiwara no Tadahira　(藤原忠平), 924-936
 * Sadaijin, Fujiwara no Nakahira　(藤原仲平), 937-945
 * Udaijin, Fujiwara no Sadakata　(藤原定方),　924-932
 * Udaijin, Fujiwara no Nakahira　(藤原仲平), 933-937
 * Udaijin, Fujiwara no Tsunesuke　(藤原恒佐), 837-838
 * Udaijin, Fujiwara no Saneyori　(藤原実頼),　944-947.

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 13:59, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
