  I foolishly deleted my blog carlo dainelli.wordpress.com, but now I want to use that blog address again because it’s just my first and last name. Is there a way to have it back reactivated? Thanks for you help.

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

  https://carlodainelli.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  That’s unfortunate because the answer is no. Blog deletion is a permanent and irreversible act. Deleting a site requires ignoring several warnings that the URL cannot be registered again by you or anyone else. https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  You can register another .wordpress.com blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Then if you wish to you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade because it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.

  Actually:

  Sites already deleted by their authors two or more years ago may become available again, if they present no username or other technical conflicts. Do you see a deleted site with an address you would like to have? You can try registering a new site with that address here. If it is available, it will be yours.

  Yes I know that and it’s in the support doc I linked to but the deletion did not happen two years or more ago. See here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/carlodainelli31936

  Per your posting above

  That’s unfortunate because the answer is no. Blog deletion is a permanent and irreversible act.

  Yes but if we are going to dwell on the exception we will not be driving home the point that deletion is meant to be a permanent and irreversible act. That said, I’m copy and paste answers so thanks for prompting me to chnage min. lol :D The template for my new one is below.

  @auxclass
  I’m learning how to work on a dual language keyboard and I made some typos above.

  Edit: That said, I’m the queen of copy and paste answers so thanks for prompting me to change mine. ;)
