This article is in good shape, but needs some wikifying. I have a few comments/queries:

His name is variously given as Dubislav (article title) and Dubislaw (lead and infobox). I understand one is the German, but we should choose the common name and stick with it done
suggest listing the wars he fought in, in the lead, which will give it a bit more meat (it is a smallish). done
link Cornet (rank) done
what regiment was he first commissioned into? It's not clear although I suspect it was Gessler No. 4.
typo Cuirassier and initial cap for Regiment as it is a formal title also elsewhere done
link Rittmeister done
I would link major general to generalmajor instead of major general, and generalleutnant likewise, as the current ranks were not equivalent at the time done
drove back crews? Do you mean garrisons? fixed
link Bohemia and Moravia done
link Pomerania done
link Goleniów for Gollnow at first mention done
link Gryfice for Greifenberg done
link Prenzlau done
link Słupsk for Stolp done
Russian General Gottlieb Heinrich Totleben's, as based on his name, one would assume he was German, and it needs to be possessive done
link Silesia done
who is Lacy? rank, full name and link? done
is there a link for Köblin? done linked but no article. I don't know where it is. Probabliy a fleck of a village that is long gone.
"he was able to conquer the crossing" what crossing? done
link Kołobrzeg for Kolberg done
is Landsberg the same as Landsberg an der Warthe? If so, suggest using its full name for clarity done
link magazine (artillery) at the first mention done
suggest "the bridge over the Warthe" rather than Warthe Bridge done
suggest using Parsęta instead of Persante done
link Order of the Black Eagle in the body done
link General of the Cavalry I've done that, but it's linked to an article that should date from 1870-
File:DubislawPlaten.jpg needs a proper source found artist. not sure there is a source, but I think that is from the book of portraits done at the Prussian Academy of Arts.....
The source for File:Sophia Susanna Charlotte, Frau von General Dubislav Friedrich von Platen, by German school (ca 1750).jpg is dead and it also needs a US PD tag took it out

That's me done. Placing on hold for comments to be addressed. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 03:04, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I made a few tweaks to your edits. This article is well-written, verifiable using reliable sources, covers the subject well, is neutral and stable, contains no plagiarism, and is illustrated by appropriately licensed images with appropriate captions.
