Hi, there! Just for clarification, administrators cannot delete accounts; only a developer could perform such an action and as far as my memory serves I do not believe that has been done in any cases. As for blacklisting the website, I'm not sure what you mean. If it is no longer possible to add that link to Misplaced Pages, it would have been blacklisted by an administrator on the m:Spam blacklist on Meta. I am not an administrator there, so it would have been someone else who did that. As to the blocks, I acted upon a concern brought up on the administrator's noticeboard visible here, where several other users agreed that the use of the links on the talk pages classified as spam, though of course I was not aware of the details at the time. Are any of the accounts still in use? I'll leave a note on the administrator's noticeboard to see about unblocking them if it is requested. Thanks for telling me of this!
