I know this might sound silly but Am I the first to notice this guy's drawing is the EXACT IMAGE AND LIKENESS OF MORGAN FREEMAN!??? This is weird. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.166.116.249 (talk) 14:11, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that the stub

By all means, lets merge the stub with the article on Moshoeshoe. 84.141.141.245 02:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've expanded the other article, and it's not really a good subject for merging anymore. The war, as usual, involved several sides and was important in Lesotho's history by its own right. - Bobet 01:29, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with expanding the other article rather than merging. I also feel it’s not a good subject for merging anymore. --DavidD4scnrt (talk) 08:17, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since this appears to be an Anglicized pronunciation, I'm formatting it that way. kwami 23:11, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's no reason to have a one-sentence article when it could just be a paragraph in this article. 199.38.155.10 (talk) 00:48, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There was nothing to merge, really. The sentence is also in

the article states that, in his "early childhood," he helped his father gain power. To me, "early childhood" is maybe five or six years old, give or take one or two. It's unlikely that a child that young would have been able to contribute too much during a power struggle. I wonder if this should be "as a young adult" or "young man."

OK, I changed it to 'youth' to match the language used in the body section - Francoisdjvr (talk) 09:04, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
