    If you're the only person who has edited the profile, then there will be a "Delete Person" (trashcan icon) as the last item under Tools in the right-hand column.

    If other people have contributed to the profile, then it'll say "delete person unavailable", and you can only sort of delete it, by merging it with someone.
