Deleting
-
I had confirmed that a wordpress site was deleted for me, but I have two others that I need to delete but they won’t delete without email confirmation and I no longer have access to that email. When I type in my current email address is says it’s currently in use. I’m not sure how to delete the site except for making a brand new e-mail address. Is there a way to help?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there. It sounds like you still have access to the account, though? In that case you’ll have to change that account’s email address to a different email that is not already associated with a WordPress.com account.
What you can do is register a free Gmail or Yahoo address and change the account email to that.
Let us know if you need more help with this.

I can no longer access it because it took it off my sites page, when I pull it up it says it’s been deleted but other people are using links and it is still showing up for them.
I need to take these down and I spoke with someone in the chat option last night and they said it was gone, but when I have others telling me a certain page is still up. -

If a staff member in chat told you the site is deleted, then it is. When I click on the link you gave here I also see:
knightshonorschem.wordpress.com is no longer available.
The authors have deleted this site.
So that site is definitely gone.
However, search engines keep cached copies of website to make searching faster. They keep those copies on their own servers and WordPress.com can’t do anything to delete it. Some search engines delete their cached pages every two months or so, but others never delete it.
The only way to have those cached copies removed is to contact every search engine directly and request removal, but it’s up to each search engine whether they’d do it or not. Here’s the instructions for doing it with Google: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1663419?hl=en

It is not my honorshcem site. I know that one is deleted because I could confirm it.
It is another site that is still popping up from one that I could not confirm the deletion of.
If I don’t have access to the site anymore, then I don’t know how I am suppose to be code on that site to request removal? -

I am afraid to post the site to make it even more public. :(
there are two sites.
Is there a way I can privately message them? -
Kokkieh – truly thank you for your help! I really appreciate it! If I can send you the links privately so you can look at them I would so greatly appreciate it

You are very welcome :)
I understand why you don’t want to post the link. I will tag this for staff to follow up. They’ll be better able than me to help you further. Please be patient while waiting for them to answer.
