Deleting Lists Belonging to Former Employees?

I have a series of extremely outdated lists that were created by former employees and I wish to delete them to prevent confusion. I am a system/solutions admin, and I don't see a way to delete them. Is this not possible? That seems like a huge oversight if so.

    @Cole Welsh I believe these are managed in database view under the RE NXT Lists folder.

    @Cole Welsh This is one of the most cumbersome tasks. It can be done. In web view click that you want to open existing lists. Then you have to open the list that you want to delete. On the “…More” options you'll find the Delete!! This needs to be much easier to accomplish than opening every one.

    @Cole Welsh But I have run into a few where there was no delete option under ‘More’ Assuming creator marked no one could have access. As dba there needs to be an easy way to clean up lists.

    @JoAnn Strommen Completely agree, I've manually gone through and deleted the ones I could, but as the DBA I should have access to delete all of them if necessary. So frustrating!
