If you're OK with the new Photos, you can punt iPhoto whenever it jolly well suits you.

It should be safe to delete iPhoto.

On some Macs, iPhoto has been completely disabled on the latest version of OS X Yosemite (attempting to open it results in a "This version of iPhoto is notncompatible" error), so it serves no function any more.

If we remove iPhoto, are there any files/folders in particular that might be left behind by an app removal app? Stuff that might be buried deep?
