thats a matter of personal opinion, and dependent on what you want. for example, if removing lates would leave you with a clean, aged, positive entry, id go with that.
if you DO want it gone, then my initial GW request would be for that, and if shot down id go with the "i understand, if you dont feel comfortable deleting, would you consider the following lates :xx/xx,xx/xx, etc." thang.
