Hey everyone I just wanted to know if you make some people Administers to your site, do they have the power to delete the site? Thank You!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Yes. If you add members as administrators, they do get the power to delete your site. Site deleted by any administrator isn’t recovered by WordPress team as it is deleted by authorized member.
Also, completely deleted site can’t be recovered.
So be careful before you add anyone as Admin.Hope that helps.

Hello @allthingsgaming2017,
An Administrator has full power over the site and can do everything related to site administration*. Administrators can create more Administrators, invite new users, remove users, and change user roles. They have complete control over posts, pages, uploaded files, comments, settings, themes, imports, exports, other users – the whole shebang.
Nothing related to site-administration is off-limits for Administrators, including deleting the entire site. This is why we recommend having only one administrator per blog.
*Note: Administrators are not able to transfer site ownership if they do not own the site. Administrators are not able to revise or manage paid upgrades that are owned by a different user on the site.
As stated in this official support documents:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/So yes, administrators can delete sites.
Hope this helps 🙂
