fabian95.wordpress.com is no longer available.
The authors have deleted this site.MPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blogs or their content does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months. We cannot help with this search engine issue.

But the content is still downloadable. That means the files are still saved on wordpress. But I deleted them.
I actually thought this is kind of a support ticket. Is it possible to change my first text above (because of the name)? -
Are you referring to media files?
Or are your referring to text files?
Do the files produce a “404 page not found”?
To keep things running quickly around here, files are held in multiple caches through a separate system. These caches are usually cleared within 3 days.I tagged this thread for a Staff response.

It is a word text file. No, you can download the whole file without any problems.
Thank you! :)

@nineteentwentytwenty – As Timethief mentioned, the content likely is deleted. However, it can take some time until the file URLs will 404. Could you pass along a file URL that’s currently still appearing as active?

That’s the Link for the file. I can still download it. Could you also please delete the post above because it is including my name. I thought this is a private support ticket and not supposed to be published.

http://fabian95.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/kurzgeschichte-wettbewerb.doc – gives me a 404 not found so it is probably gone from the server cache’s at WordPress.COM – but the file will be available through Google and other search engine cache’s for a while

@nineteentwentytwenty – As @auxclass mentioned, that file is currently 404’ing for me as well. It will continue to appear in search results for a short time. If you would like to try to remove it immediately, you can use the tool @timethief mentioned here:

As for your previous post, I have removed your name. You’re posting in a public support forum. Everything posted here is publicly available.
