This article feels more like an advertisement than an impartial representation. For once, the fact it was mentioned that this article was an entrant to the Independent Games Festival. In addition, does the version history really belong on Wikipedia? Would love if a more experienced editor could shed some light on this.

-- Just a quick edit, the game currently does not work on any Linux platform and yet the article claims otherwise which further leads me to think this article was either made by Introversion or a fan of theirs.

Nope, am neither I just have an interest in the game.
As I started the article before the game went into alpha very little information was available and it required some verifiable information. I feel that the fact the game was an entrant in the Independent Games Festival is relevant as this game is by an indie game by an indie developer and that particular sentence conveys this.
I did not add the version history section, however I do see it as useful at present and will more than likely be removed when the game is released and the article is fleshed out.
As for the Linux claim since the game is not released I believe it fair to include Linux since it will be available on this platform when it is finally released see the base pack section of this [
[1]] page. Thanks

I disagree, it would be better to instead mention that the developers have announced that they would eventually port it to Linux, rather than flat out create the impression that Prison Architect is available for Linux right now as you have done. As for the release history, it's completely irrelevant(not to mention unprecedented for a Wikipedia article) to the structure of this article and every feature added should be edited into the "Gameplay" section instead.

I removed the version history and changelog; we definitelly do not list these on Wikipedia (
WP:CHANGELOG,
WP:GAMECRUFT), but sum up the key history/development points in prose, which I did. Also note that not every feature needs to be in Gameplay, in fact only the features that are essential to describe the game. —

Paradox purchasing the game and adding their launcher and paid dlc has been criticised, and users have acussed paradox of stealing mods from one of the top PA modders and using aspects of those mods as paid dlc without credit or payment to the modder. Worth a mention? I'm sure steams "most helpful" and highest rated user review for the game should be a valid source?
