Body: <p>Trying to find details on how to remove a CiviCRM test data setup I've created.  I'm using Wordpress 5.3.2 multisite and CiviCRM 5.22.1.   I've installed CiviCRM into the plugin directory which appears to work...</p>
  
  <p>.. as I installed a CiviCRM instance in one of the domains.  The installation used my default Wordpress database, and I'd prefer to do it again, but using a new database (and also in a different domain).</p>
  
  <p>I'd like to have two instances, using the same code, but ideally accessing different databases for the CiviCRM data.</p>
  
  <p>Anyway can't see any documentation on how to to remove the CiviCRM database and get to the position where I can reinstall in the two domains. Any suggestions on how to remove the CiviCRM database - and if this is documented anywhere?  </p>

  The files are easy enough to get rid of - just delete .../wp-content/plugins/civicrm and best to clear ../wp-content/uploads/civicrm as well.
  
  For the database, you could just leave the old version there or you can use phpMyAdmin to delete all the tables starting civicrm\_ leaving all the ones starting wp\_ there.
