Cleaning up mods

How do you clean up mods, theres a mod called bank items I think, it lets
you view whats in your bank from anywhere, however it doesnt get rid of old
characters from the list, a few others are the same. I'm guessing all this
stuff is in "SavedVariables.lua" ? Theres 'cleaning' programs around, but
they just seem to delete everything in the WTF & WBD folders.

Also is this where Gatherer stores its nodes information?

Good guess it is. Most (all?) mods save their data in there, so if you
simply delete it, you loose everything. But you can open the file with
an editor (use something like WordPad, don't use Notepad since it
doesn't understand the linebreaks) and try to delete all lines that
belong to the misbehaving mod. Most times the variable names speak for
themselves or even carry the name of the mod. Remember to make a
backup copy, just in case.

Yes.

WDB is a internal data cache WoW uses. If you delete it, it is
automatically rebuild and you MIGHT get less lags in-game for some
time.
