Wikipedia Purchase Management

Welcome to the Wikipedia Purchase Management page on the English Wikipedia. We make up a group of users who were tasked by Johnathan Secret to manage and maintain the process of buying Wikipedia and any of its associated pages.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them on our discussion page, or by contacting our head of management Prep Greif Blur or ~~his second-in-command~~ (new second-in-command pending).

Create and maintain a verified simple system necessary to buy Wikipedia

Frequently asked questions

Q: What does it mean to "terminate"? Are you killing anyone who fails the process?

A: Of course not! That would be illegal, and we do not condone illegal activity. The Buying Wikipedia Curse is an unfortunate coincidence, but we can assure you that most people who have attempted a purchase are still alive and well.
The termination process is a form of tying up loose ends, mainly resetting the steps to ensure that they are ready for the next buyer, ensuring that the failed buyer does not continue if they have failed, or someone else picking up where they left off.

Q: Who is Danny?

A: Stop asking.
