I'm not aware of any criteria for solder in the flared area of a terminal.  In
my opinion, you should not have to remove the solder.  Unnecessary rework is
something which should always be avoided.  Take it for what it's worth.

When flared terminals are wavesoldered, the center section where the
terminal is flared is filled with solder. Is this an acceptable condition ?
 Or, does the flared center have to be wicked out ?

The post wavesolder wiring to the terminal is done with SN63 solder.
