As list administrators, we don't have a "delete archived message" or
"edit archived message" button. For us to modify the archives, we need
a member of the Wikimedia Technical Support Crew to directly modify
the entries on the server. Which is a hell of a lot of trouble, and is
obviously only reserved for the most serious of breaches of privacy.
If you still wish for them to rectify this, contact them on their
mailing list, which you can subscribe to at the following address:
