Please delete my Listopia Lists

Listopia lists are community resources. They do not belong to any one user, including the person who added them.
I just created one Listopia list too many, a false start on a better list, with a misspelling, that I corrected but when saved, started a second correct list. How can I delete one of my own Listopia lists?
Brent, I don't know that you can delete it per se, but if no one else has voted yet, just remove all your votes.

I've met many writers who would gladly throw a hissy fit if they found a link to their book on a list they didn't create. Believe me, I learned not to click or share that way. There is no way I would create a list of books online by other living people without their written permission. Classics, perhaps."
I must admit I don't usually bother with Listopia lists, but this "rule" is new to me. I thought the whole point was creating lists on a certain subject with books by many different authors (I thought lists of one author's works weren't even allowed?). I don't see why those authors should give permission first.
I myself have contributed to lists featuring f.e. books with people reading on the covers, on underrated children's books, etc.
ETA I don't know if librarians have the authority to delete Listopia lists, but in case they do, a link to those lists would help.
