i did :
 revoke delete on my table from tradein (which is me) ;

tradein_clients=3D> BEGIN WORK; delete from users  where userid=3D34866;
BEGIN
ERROR:  users: Permission denied.
tradein_clients=3D> ROLLBACK ;
ROLLBACK
tradein_clients=3D> UPDATE  users set password=3D'mallah' where userid=3D34=
866;
UPDATE 1
tradein_clients=3D>=20


does public not include me??
