Comment 8 at https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/38349 :

"Ask to deactivate the project at
    https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion

If the project has no data that is useful to the community, it will be
deactivated. If the project has code or bugs, the community may still
use the project even if the maintainers are no interested in it.
Launchpad admins will not deactivate projects that the community can
use. Consider transferring maintainership to another user."

Note the continued use of "deactivate" throughout the answer to
repeated inquiries of how to delete a project. From
https://help.launchpad.net/PrivacyPolicy :

"Launchpad retains all data submitted by users permanently.

Except in the circumstances listed below, Launchpad will only delete
data if required to do so by law or if data (including files, PPA
submissions, bug reports, bug comments, bug attachments, and
translations) is inappropriate. Canonical reserves the right to
determine whether data is inappropriate. Spam, malicious code, and
defamation are considered inappropriate. Where data is deleted, it
will be removed from the Launchpad database but it may continue to
exist in backup archives which are maintained by Canonical."
