A fact from Morosi appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 23 April 2015 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that his son's refusal to pay a hut tax led to the siege of Baphuthi chief Morosi on a mountaintop, culminating in his death and decapitation?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2015/April. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Morosi.

Article title--proper spelling of the name

This article should be renamed "Moorosi" not "Morosi". The name "Moorosi" is generally recognized as the correct one. The town in Lesotho is called "Mt. Moorosi" as is the mountain itself. Historical sources such as Peter Sanders' book 'Throwing Down White Man', the definitive account of the Gun War and the rebellion that Moorosi led, refers to him as such.
