Why isn't my blog deleted?
-
Hello,
Recently, I put up a blog at the address http://imfbackup.wordpress.com/. I decided I didn’t need it and deleted it via the Dashboard.
However, for some reason, not only is the blog still up, I can no longer access the Dashboard: WordPress claims that I don’t have permission to, even though the blog’s posts are listed under my username.
Would it be possible for anyone at WordPress to delete the blog at http://imfbackup.wordpress.com/ for me?
Thanks.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can’t delete a blog unless you are logged in under the username account ie. the Admin that registered the blog. This could be happening because you have more than one username account and have not logged out, cleared your browser cache and cookies http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050 and then logged in as the Admin under the correct account.
Provided you are logged in under the username account that registered the blog you ought to be able to delete the blog by using these instructions. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

I tried logging out, clearing my cache, and logging back in again. It didn’t work; in fact, imfbackup.wordpress.com doesn’t even show up on my list of blogs, even though I created the site and was its sole admin.

That’s very weird. Maybe it’s hidden. Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility -
Looked at both links. Imfblog isn’t listed under Hidden, it isn’t listed anywhere. If I try to access the Dashboard at imfblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/, I get this error page:
“User fbimf Cannot Access the Dashboard Requested
You are logged in as “fbimf” and do not have the necessary privileges to access the dashboard for “imfbackup”. If you are not “fbimf”, please log out, and log back in with your username. If you are “fbimf” and you need access, please ask an administrator of the site to invite you.
If you reached this screen by accident and meant to visit one your own sites, here are some shortcuts to help you find your way.”
And the “Your Sites” list underneath it is blank.

You didn’t delete the blog, you just deleted yourself from it as a user.
I have deleted the blog for you now.
Please let us know if you need any further assistance!
