As you see on the screenshot I have many meshes in the DataBlock view of the Outliner, but in fact, I use only 3.

How to delete rest of them ?

    If you save the file and open it again, will it be removed? – Faceb Faceb Jul 05 '15 at 10:41
  • After several savings and openings the file (and viewing the list of meshes in Object Tab), yes, but I assume there must be a better way then just reloading project hoping that this time it will helps... – evilferber Jul 05 '15 at 11:05
  • Unfortunately not, but you could use python: http://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/32349/python-scripting-remove-curve-object?lq=1 – p2or Jul 05 '15 at 12:17
  • I usually press File>Revert instead of closing and re-opening, you have save your file first of course – Ahmed Ali Dec 06 '17 at 08:42

Change the outliner view mode to "Orphan Data" instead of "Datablocks".
To the right of the search field in the header is a "Purge All" button;

and may simplify your problem.

This button essentially performs the save and reload process in one click, which in turn invokes Blenders garbage collection routines.
