In iPadOS 16, most of the wallpaper options need to be downloaded if you want to use them, similar to how it works in macOS. (The thumbnails show the cloud/download icon in the upper-right corner if they’re not downloaded.) I tapped on a few of these to see how they looked, but I don’t really care to have the unused downloaded wallpapers stored on my iPad anymore. Is there a way to remove them?

I’ve tried long pressing and swiping the thumbnail, but nothing. I also looked through iPad Storage in Settings, but didn’t see anything there either. Is it not possible to remove the downloaded wallpapers in iPadOS, like we can do in macOS?
