  Hello, I need an email confirming that I’m the owner of the domain https://theindependentmanitaly.wordpress.com since 2018 (I do not remember the exact date). What I should do?

  Hi @ericlauder, I can see you created that site. Can you clarify what you’re trying to do?

  Hello @Supernovia
  I need to prove I created and manage the domain since I’m asking WebArchive to remove some old content in their archives (DMCA take down). In some old comments and articles I posted too much personal informations, I removed such contente later but it’s still in their archives.
  Now WebArchive requires the proof that I manage the site since its creation, I need something from WordPress to prove that, an email would be sufficient.

  In other words: I just want the old content to be erased from WebArchive – such content is not available anymore in my site and it contain sensible informations.
  To achieve so I just need a declaration by WordPress stating that I created and manage the site since its creation.
  Then WebArchive will be satisfied and they’ll proceed to remove the content from their archives.

  Hi there,

  One easy thing you can do is post something specific on that site so that the Internet Archive can verify that you are indeed the owner.

  They want the proof I was the owner even in the past.
