Ok, then how do I make sure my query uses plpsql?

I have tried

IF 1 = 1 THEN
update contacts set deleted = TRUE
END IF;
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

But I still get the same error.

IF is only possible inside plpgsql¹, not in plain SQL. And, your check is
always true because 1 = 1 is always true.

¹ or an other language
