[edit] contradiction

There is contradiction between this article and Historic eruptions of Mount Fuji article concerning the number of Mount Fuji eruptions and the dates of the those eruptions. For example in Historic eruptions of Mount Fuji the Jōgan eruption occured in 684, long before Heian period and instead of the 3 major eruptions in this article Historic eruptions of Mount Fuji mentions at least 17 from 781.

Thanks for pointing that out. The digits had been transposed. The correct date is 864, which is the sixth year of Jogan. I've corrected it. Also, I've removed information about other eruptions from this article, and linked to the article on Historic eruptions so that the information will be easily accessible.
