My original gedcom upload was a disaster. So I started my project on WikiTree from scratch and built it up, person by person. Can I, or should I, delete the original gedcom file from my profile for housekeeping purposes?

Hi Michael,
Are you talking about deleting the raw GEDCOM or profiles it created? It doesn't matter whether you delete the actual file; does no harm or good so it's up to you. But it's important that the profiles that were created be edited and merged.
