  It will not let me change my blog address to ‘samueljholden.wordpress.com’ despite the URL not being taken.

  I did originally use ‘samueljholden.wordpress.com’ for another blog but changed it for another URL, so it should still be available.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  samueljholden.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  This is what the “Change URL” procedure does, and it is irreversible. I’m afraid you can’t have that URL.

  Hi,

  samueljholden.wordpress.com has been deleted and therefore not available for use anymore.

  But I was the author who deleted it, so is there any way to reactive it?

  Once you deleted it, it cannot be reactivated. More about that:
