  Hello thingsforboys,

  Are you asking to delete the site completely? As the administrator, only you can do this. If you are desiring to delete the site please see link below:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  If you are desiring to empty the site so you can begin fresh please see the link below:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/

  Both sites will give you instructions on how to accomplish what you are desiring to do.

  You must be logged in under the username account that registered the site first. Then to empty the site you have two options:
  (1) Doing this quickly and easily yourself http://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
  (2) Waiting in a queue and having Staff do it for you.

  Staff can empty the whole blog for you. That will remove all data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments, and uploaded files and once deleted, the data cannot be recovered.

  If you are sure you want Staff to proceed, and you are prepared to wait then type modlook into the tags in the sidebar of this thread for Staff attention, and post here again to:
  (1) confirm the URL of the blog you want them to empty;
  (2) confirm that you know content deletion is irreversible.

  Hello thingsforboys!

  I checked your site and found that the site have almost a thousand posts, more than 5 thousand comments and a lot of media. All that will be deleted and there is not a way to retrieve that content after we delete it. Are you sure you want to proceed?

  @carinapilar, yes I wish to proceed. The site content is from a migration I tested.

  thingsforboys, I have started the process to empty the site, I suggest you wait a couple hours to check if it’s all okay.
