You will need to e-mail the archiver to get it deleted. The address is at the bottom of the incoming web page. If you just let it stay there, it will, eventually end up in the DELAYED folder, where it will, eventually, be removed when somebody gets around to trying to figure out what it is (could be years from now).

In the meantime, it was deleted. People, please just read and follow the upload policy:

--- Quote ---If a file needs to be re-uploaded

There are a variety of reasons for a file needing to be re-uploaded; for example, an upload may have failed, or a .txt file may not have produced the correct results. If this is the case, you will have to rename the old file (most FTP clients, including the ones which come with OS/2, let you do this) to filename.delete and then reupload the file under its original name. For example, if abc123.zip fails on upload, rename the old one to abc123.zip.delete and then reupload abc123.zip. If the upload fails a second time, you can rename the file to any variation of filename.delete, such as abc123.zip.delete2. The same goes for textfiles.

That text is a bit outdated. Since a longer time even WPI is accepted as archive format.

One request to all who upload something: Please always use lower-case filenames. Hobbes is case-sensitive and the files were automatically renamed to lower-case on moving to the proposed directory. Therefore people often don't find mixed-case files (and announced as such) after they were already processed.
