In this link, you'll see actions that can be taken, and removing them from all the profiles is a possibility. It's a bit of a last resort, as it can then create an issue with non-open profiles and such, but each situation is approached in a similar manner. If they're unresponsive, you're asked to try to contact them via a couple of methods, then WikiTree tries as well. The timeline can vary a bit if they're still contributing, but in the end, their profiles can be orphaned and opened up for adoption.

WikiTree has flagged the PM as non-responsive already.
Hi Jo

I cannot see any Unresponsive Profile Manager (UPM) requests from you for any manager.

If you submit a UPM request and the manager has been unresponsive for an extended period, normally, if they fail to respond to a WikiTree email, their account will be closed and all non-Private profiles will be orphaned.

In a few instances, where there is a large number of Profiles that lack birth or death dates, the closure of the account may not be immediate. When you submit a request, you can use the comments field to note any other profiles managed by that manager which may also be of interest. It is not necessary to submit multiple requests for the same manager.
I am reluctant to go there just now.  I sent a private message and hope for the best.
