I would go so far as to say, don't delete *anything* until legally you absolutely have to.
I would like to somehow modyfy this statement: we should replace the data not delete it! So please remap the information that needs to be removed.
Well that is deleting. Everything else would be copying.

Especially on less common tags that are rather specific or subjective you will not be able to replace them. E.g. tracktype, smoothness, mtb:scale, sac_scale and so on, would definitely need local knowledge to be redone.

So if you don't want to have any trouble, best delete any object WITHOUT looking at the tags, else someone who purposely mistagged will quickly find out. Also things like name:en and other languages, simply redoing every tag shouldn't be done at all.
