Is there a way to delete a large number of contacts from my iPhone 5 all at once?

[iMore Question]

Have about 30 names to delete and would like to do it all at once without clicking on each contact and then scrolling down to delete.

You can go to iCloud dot com... Contacts app there... select the ones you want to delete with standard computer commands to select items... hit the settings icon... then delete.
