Let people know that to remove things from the pull down menus all you have to do is go to the "View By" section; Select the high level item (sometimes you have to figure out where it is and what name it goes by) and then right click on the items in the list. Or, you can change the names to something that makes more sense. 

Of course, you should also let them know which values they can't change / add to without impacting important queries.
