Can anyone tell me where to find a simple, concise list of things to do to speed up my WordPress website? Also, does deleting unused plugins also delete all remnants of code? Or does that have to be done manually?

Deleting a plugin from the dashboard will remove all files. If the plugin has an uninstall script that removes data from the database (or anything else) that will also happen if you use the dashboard to remove the plugin.
There really is no checklist that is going to work on every site. Best bet is to go to gtmetrix and run it against your site, then look at the waterfall. That will tell you how long each thing takes to load. Then you have something to work with.
