It's easier to help in this situation if we have some specifics, so it would help if you would provide a link or two to the people you are talking about.
You could work backwards and sort out the errors if you know what this line should be.....and you have the sources to show your version is correct. The health of WikiTree would be enhanced if you put this right.

If you mean Remove yourself as PM / Trusted List person on these profiles someone will likely explain BULK REMOVAL -- it will orphan all those profiles
If that's what you mean. You nor anyone can delete them from WikiTree.

If you do disconnect them you cannot then create new profiles for them. That would be duplication and totally against Wikitree’s ethos.
