Why do you want to wipe everything? Just remove things as you need to, some of the scripts for example are actually needed and you'll have to write them again anyways if you decide to wipe everything.

Not to be disrespectful, but re-using scripts is a terrible idea, because first it's not original, and second if you change it to your taste you might corrupt it
As for your original question, go to the events tab, set the number of all events to 0 and click "apply changes"
To wipe the map, go to the header, change it's dimensions to 1x1 and rechange it to whatever you want

Huh? So let me get this straight. Re-using scripts are bad because you might corrupt it and because it's not original? I'm not asking him to use the regular story scripts, but rather implying he should make use of some of the Pokecenter, world map, flight path and other similar scripts already there. To avoid corruption after modifying a "regular story" script you simply just repoint the modified script to free space, and from A-Map give it the new pointer.

I recommend JPAN's hacked engine it wil clear all of the flags vars etc and it wil empty all your maps and you can redesign them to your desire, I use the same. It has all the script for pokecenter etc in the files that come with the hacked engine.
Check it out.
Good luck.
