Napoleon vs. Bonaparte

Authors (David Chandler, for example) generally use General Bonaparte before 1804 and Emperor Napoleon starting in 1804. I just checked Chandler's The Campaigns of Napoleon and when describing the Battle of Marengo (June 1800), Chandler uses Bonaparte. So I followed this convention and changed Napoleon back to Bonaparte. Since the Napoleon Bonaparte link is in the introduction, I assume readers will understand that Bonaparte and Napoleon Bonaparte are the same person. You changed Habsburg Army to Imperial Army which is technically correct, so I left it alone. (See Imperial and Royal.) Most authors use Habsburg, Austria, and Imperial interchangeably.
