Heisig says that 舞 has 15画, but I've written it out and I only count 14画. I write the "monocle" part of the "sunglasses" primitive in three strokes, which is the only part I was considering I could have been writing incorrectly, but I looked it up on 黄橋 and the way I was writing it is correct. Thanks if you can tell me whether the kanji is 14 or 15画.

Definitely 15

ah okay. I was just confused because on yellowbridge(http://www.yellowbridge.com/chinese/char...=%E8%88%9B) it said the "sunglasses" primitive is six strokes not seven. Also on wikitionary (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E8%88%9E) it said that 舞 is 14画.

I think maybe in Chinese, the "sunglasses" primitive is six strokes, but in Japanese it is seven.

Yeah. You'll run into this problem a lot with 叫 (4-looking-radical). In some kanji its written with 3 strokes, in others with 2.

I always use 3, and don't really worry about it. Never had a problem with input in electronic dictionaries with 3.

You'll notice on the Wiki page you posted that it alternates between two different versions of the character, one with 14 strokes and one with 15. Apparently the 14-stroke one is the Chinese variant.
