Deleting an old blog with lost log-in access

    I have rather tricky request.

    I set up a blog at http://fromchinatotheendoftheworld.wordpress.com
    in 2007 for a group project that was part of my university photography degree. I set up the blog using a university email account.

    I had forgotten about the blog all together, but now one of my fellow student whose work is included on the blog has got in touch with me saying that the blog should be deleted. The person doesn’t want to see the blog come up in Google search for the person’s name. I’m happy to delete the blog. The problem is that I don’t remember log-in details and I cannot request new password sent as I don’t have access to the university email account having graduated three years ago.

    I know the request is tricky as I could be anybody requesting to delete some blog I don’t like, but you can see that my name Mikko Takkunen is mentioned at the blog I want to delete ( http://fromchinatotheendoftheworld.wordpress.com) and I currently ran a popular photography blog at http://photojournalismlinks.com.
