  I have written a blog. I have a comment pending from someone I do not know.
  I click on the link and it says:”Handmade Jewelry Blog”
  ” By adminOn October 12, 2012In Handmade jewelryWith No CommentsPermalink
  Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start blogging!”
  There I see my blog. It would be their first post. I have not approved or unapproved it yet.
  If I unapprove, they cannot use my blog on their page?
  I dont see any other blogs on that page. Is this a joke?
  Thank you, Allie

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

  …please leave a link to the comment.

  But, if this is the comment you’re having a problem with:

  Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start blogging!

  You can delete it. It’s just WordPress being helpful and cute.

  This sounds like a reblog, but I cannot tell for sure without a link to the site. I tried searching Google, but could not find a site called “Handmade Jewelry Blog” at WordPress.

  If you unapprove the comment, all it will do is keep the comment off your post, it will not remove the reblog from the other site.

  Here is a page that explains reblogging:

  Maybe it is a reblog from a newbie. Thank you both for your help! :)

  They linked to your site with the text “View the original article here”.

  I just thought it strange because there are no other blogs on that page when I went to look at my own blog over there.
