To eliminate an incorrect profile you accidentally created, merge it into the correct profile you created for the person.

It would appear that the person you linked is who you are logged in as? Is this who you want to delete? If so see:

I don't think he wants to close his account. I, by mistake got a second brother entered, although I have one. I asked someone to help me eliminate the brother that never existed in the first place. That worked.
Maybe he subsequently merged the anon with himself, which would change the link.
