Hi everyone,

I have an organization on GitHub that has been flagged, and I would like to delete it. However, I can't seem to find a clear option or steps to do so. Has anyone experienced something similar and can share a solution?

Do I need to contact GitHub Support directly, or is there another way to handle this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @Kizziama , I found this steps on docs

• In the upper-right corner of GitHub, select your profile photo, then click Your organizations.
• Next to the organization, click Settings.
• In the "Danger zone" section, click Delete this organization.
• Read the warning. If you want to proceed, type the organization's name, then click Cancel plan and delete the organization.

If you cant see the option, create a ticket to support

Thanks for reply.

I know the options in the danger zone, but I can't click on them.
I have also submitted it to github support but there is no proper answer

@Kizziama I'm really sorry you're dealing with this. I guess it’s a known issue and most likely a misclassification by their spam detector.

In the meantime, I’d recommend raising a support ticket—they will get back to you, though it might take some time. For me, it took about two months before they unflagged my organization.

As a temporary workaround, you could create a second account, add it to your organization, and then remove yourself. Hope this helps
