I just did the following:

apt-get purge $(cat removelist)

Using the attached list as the removelist.

I have no use for the stuff I removed and they seem to have no ill effects FOR ME.

That should save a bit of space. Also you should try:
dpkg -S filename and then remove the package through apt-get purge package

This way you also see what other things might get affected by it and so on(i.e. it might remove/break mediaplayer or contacts etc...). Some in that list are obvious some not... example
hildon-desktop-application-shortcuts-mr0 <-- this removes the Ovi.desktop file :)

Not by randomly deleting things.
