Delete orphaned kafka partitions

We restarted kafka server. It complained about offline partitions. We used kafka-topics.sh command to find more info. It didn't show anything. Could someone instruct me how to delete offline partitions manually in detail? Thanks.

@bluespring One should not be deleting the offline/online partitions that may cause in data loss or under-replicated partitions. You may reassign the partitions to new hosts following the document below:
