deleting names from 'List' view ?

In my early days I nabbed a tree from someone else thinking we had common ancestry but later realise this is not so. Deleteing names from the 'Full' tree is labour intensive but done; but now I am left with all the deleted names in my List view. Very annoying as they have nothing to do with me.........any hints please?

They're usually helpful with queries like that, and will reply within 3-5 working days.

Though having said that, and having tried it myself, and searched the GR site for help, I can't see any way to delete names from List View.

It's maybe one of those random things GR just doesn't allow.
For instance, it's impossible to remove other people's trees which have been shared with you, from the "Trees Shared with Me" drop-down list at the top of each tree page.
