How better to present these dates?
In the Kugyō section: .................................................... lifetime, 836-891 ... time in office (877-880) ............Sesshō (877-880), Fujiwara no Mototsune　(藤原基経), 836-891


 * Sesshō, Fujiwara no Mototsune　(藤原基経), 877-880.
 * Kampaku, Fujiwara no Mototsune　(藤原基経), 880-884.
 * Daijō-daijin, Fujiwara no Mototsune.
 * Sadaijin, Minamoto no Tooru　(源融), 872-895.
 * Udaijin, Fujiwara no Matotsune.
 * Udaijin, Minamoto no Masaru　(源多), 882-888.

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 19:26, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
