  I would like to keep my URL “typochondriac.wordpress.com” but delete all content in it, so that I can start over. I tried doing it myself, but it’s too difficult! Can you do this for me?

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

  If you have lots of content and are willing to wait, 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 for Staff attention and post again to this thread to:

  (1) confirm the URL of the blog you want them to empty;
  (2) confirm that you know content deletion is irreversible.

  @typochondriac

  I can do this for you. I just need you to confirm that you understand that once I empty the site your content will be gone forever.

  Leave a note of confirmation here and I’ll be happy to empty your site.
