If you try to run a program and it doesn't run, then removing i686 might have been bad. Wine is definitely one that will pull in a long list of i686 dependencies.

Generally what I recommend is this: If you install a package that you then decide you don't want, use "yum history undo" or "yum history rollback" to remove that package. Otherwise, just upgrade and don't look for things to remove. The amount of disk space used by packages you don't actively use is measured in cents. Your time is worth far more.
