Wildcard delete didn't work

Users Dgraph
1 
{
  delete {
     <0xf11168064b01135b> * * .
  }
}

after run this mutation,only the predicate dgraph.type was deleted。
how to use Wildcard delete?

From the documentation:

If the node S in the delete pattern S * * has only a few predicates with a type defined by dgraph.type , then only those triples with typed predicates are deleted. A node that contains untyped predicates will still exist after a S * * delete mutation.

Does the node with that UID have untyped predicates?

That type of issue makes me think that was a profound bad idea to remove _predicate_ from the core code. Cuz this behavior would never happen.

This is a change i never realized… :grimacing:

        "pid": 4,
        "uid": 4
      }
    }
  }
}

that’s the query results，these predicates typed with EtityInfo

type <EntityInfo> {
	creditCode
	entityName
	entityType
	invest
	pid
	branchEntity
}

how can i know the node has untyped predicates

Can you send the complete schema as reported by Ratel?

The data shows a typo.
