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 Preston Blunt (Prep Grief Blur), or his second-in-command (new second-in-command pending).
Purpose and Goals
Our main functions are to:
Create and maintain a simple verified system necessary to buy Wikipedia
Moderate Jerry and other people associated with the Wikipedia purchasing process
Track current attempts to purchase Wikipedia and verify their accuracy in following the steps, and
Terminate any people who have failed or aborted the purchase process

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.
