Ah, I forgot about the old account. Thanks!

Hm, it's a bit strange. I can now edit the group and see the “state” dropdown, but changing it to “deleted” and saving seems to have no effect. Changes to other fields are saved, but this one seems to be ignored.

I tried fiddling with the authorization fields, and gave myself admin rights for this dataset, but still no effect when setting state to deleted.

Any idea what's going on?
