Can I delete a .nupkg file?

I am new to NuGet - I just started using it and got myself a copy of WatiN.

I am trying to crop the size of the folder that was dropped before I included it in version control. I noticed that WatiN.2.0.50.nupkg is about 12 MB. I noticed from this link that .nupkg is essentially a compressed version of the package contents. Is he sure to remove it or may a problem arise in the future?

If you delete it, we will not be able to update / delete, since we use this file as a record of what is currently installed. We are looking at a function that will allow people to restore packages from package.config so that you can not place packages at all in the source control.
