# Deleting Records from a Standard R1 Table by Query

> Remove records from a Standard R1 table using filter query conditions to precisely target and permanently delete specific rows of data.

Delete records in Standard by appending the table declaration with a `-` and the query conditions that identify which records to remove. You can use the same filter syntax available for [finding records](/records/finding) to precisely target rows for deletion.

## Example

Delete all vehicles with the make `Chevy`:

```text theme={null}
[vehicles] - <make "Chevy">
```

<Warning>
  Deletions are permanent and cannot be undone. Use the `LIMIT` parameter in your filter to avoid deleting more records than intended — for example: `[vehicles] - <make "Chevy", LIMIT 1>`.
</Warning>
