A fact from Peter Bossman appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 4 November 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Peter Bossman, born in Ghana, has been elected by the people of Piran to become Slovenia's first black mayor?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/November.

Accuracy disputed: not a mayor yet[edit]

According to Slovenian regulations, till the results are official and the municipal council has its first session after the election, the mayor of Piran remains Tomaž Gantar. The first constitutional session will be held on 12 November 2010 at 10 am.[1] No. 6: "5.Poročilo Komisije za potrditev mandatov članov občinskega sveta in ugotovitev izvolitve župana in ugotovitev izvolitve župana Občine Piran" (translation: "The report of the Commission for the confirmation of the mandates of the members of the municipal session and the finding of the election of the mayor of the Municipality of Piran"). At that session Peter Bossman will only become mayor! --Eleassar ^{my talk} 11:45, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, probably the best way will be to wait until November 12 and then put the infobox back. Otherwise, I see no problems with the article as it is at this moment. --Tone 12:38, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
