[edit]moved from josef poniatowski
"Josef Anton Poniatowski (1763-1813) was a nephew of the Polish King Stanislaus II. Despite his royal Polish blood he was born in Vienna and later joined the army of the Habsburg empire in 1788. He was later offered the rank of general in the Polish army and accepted the command which led to him ordering the Polish resistance against the invading Russians in 1792. During this war he gets victory in battle of Zieleńce against russian army corp under command of general Markow. He again fought the armies of Catherine the Greatand prussian army during the Polish uprising of 1794. After this he retired until being summoned by King Frederick William II of Prussia to serve as governor of Warsaw. When the French under Napoleon I arrived and drove out the three partitioning powers - Prussia, Russia and Austria - he welcomed them and entered into french imperial service in 1807. In 1808 he was appointed war minister of the newly created Duchy of Warsaw and became a reliable general in Napoleon's service. In 1809 during the War of the Fifth Coalition he commanded forces against the Austrians in the former Polish territory of Galicia. Before this polish forces under his command get victory in battle under Raszyn. During Napoleon's Invasion of Russia in 1812 he commanded the French V Corps which contained mainly polish regiments and fought well at the battles of Smolensk and Borodino. He was wounded in November of that year and began mobilizing new Polish forces to fight off the inevitable Russian assault. In 1813 he returned to active field command for Napoleon's campaign in Germany. He was promoted marshal at the Battle of Nations, but died during the retreat across the bridge of Lindenau whilst trying to swim across the river Elster following the bridge's destruction.

I suggest that a photo of Bertel Thorvaldsen's statue of Prince Józef Poniatowski be introduced into this article. It already graces a number of articles less directly associated with Prince Józef, and certainly belongs here. logologist|Talk 19:39, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
MILHIST Assessment
[edit]I was very sad to have demoted this article to start class from B-class during the WP:MHA-BCAD Drive. the main reason is referencing. This page has great potential to be an FA class, except that there is no inline citation. get that, and the page is done. Cheers & good luck. T/@Sniperz11editssign 18:21, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Composer
[edit]A current issue of Opera magazine, in an article devoted to Polish composers of opera, states that Poniatowski was a composer.

B-class review
[edit]This article is currently at start/C class, but could be improved to B-class if it had more (inline) citations. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 18:44, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
Final Words
[edit]In Vincent Cronin's biography of Napoleon (Napoleon, 1971) Cronin states that Poniatowski's final words as he was drowning were, "Poland! Honour!" Does anyone know if this is true or not?

EB1911
[edit]While retrofitting inline cations for information copied from the public domain EB1911 (so no copyright issues, although without inline citations plagiarism is -- see WP:PLAGIARISM), I have added a number of {{citation needed}}
templates. It is not that the text that come before the {{citation needed}}
templates is in need of inline citations more than the rest of the uncited text, it is to demarcate in paragraphs where the text covered by the EB1911 starts. If those {{citation needed}}
templates were not there readers might (not unreasonably) conclude that the EB1911 citation covered all of the text from the start of the paragraph. -- PBS (talk) 13:22, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
