The "delete" example on the readme is a bit odd, since it seems to suggest that you need to specify the value to delete as well as the path. The equivalent in the documentation does not have this problem.

Looks to be a mistake in the readme. The example in the docs doesn't have value being passed in.

> echo '{"name": "Tom"}' | dasel -p json '.name'

Can confirm this was a mistake I made when mass-compiling the docs
