I removed the sentence "In 1789 he also purchased the rank of a general of artillery from the Saxon minister, Heinrich von Brühl, for 20,000 ducats. " from the text because there has to be a mistake here. Heinrich v. Brühl died in 1763, so he couldn't have sold anything to Stanislaw Potocki in 1789. So either S.P. bought it from someone else (who ?) or he didn't buy anthing at all. Maybe someone with expert knowledge can fix this. Travelbird 07:24, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It is quite astonishing, nay shocking, and perhaps a testament to the persistent unreconstructed trend on this encyclopaedia that an article going back to January 2005 has been allowed by all its many contributors to remain utterly and disgracefully free of any mention of the subject's female inheritance or of any presentation of his relations with women, save for a minuscule sentence about one of his many daughters marrying yet another, presumably significant enough (he has a wiki entry), male.
Wikipedians of all orientations, what precisely, fourteen years on, is going on here? What does it tell us?--Po Mieczu (talk) 00:03, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
