Nobody asked you to hunt the AUR for packages you think are breaking the rules. Several of the packages you are reporting have several votes and usages beyond calling them "-light" because you removed a dependency didn't like.
Now we are stuck with a bunch of requests and confused maintainers because of your self-righteous action.

I said you could fill in a deletion request if you're willing to help marking packages that you think should be deleted, I surely didn't expect you to go on a misson with that much requests in a so short period of time with a vague predefined message like that.
I get that you were trying to help, but this isn't helpful actually and that has been inevitably assimilated to spam. Please report packages properly and avoid spamming like that in the future.
Well, I purged like 17 my own packages in sake of your rules. What exactly determines usefulness in this case? When someone "have several votes and usages" - they are allowed to do it? Or this is just my packages were "disliked"? I thought rules are the same for everybody. And you purge *all* of such packages or *none* of them. As Robin Candau said: "it does not provides *extra* features or patches that would legitimate an exception to that strict rule". Just trying to comply with that *strict* rule. Or there are no rules and TUs actually do what they want? I was fairly sure it will turn out like that. It is easy to discriminate noname users. You delete my harmless packages for not complying with AUR standards, but can't push forward on a serious level. Even when someone spent time helping and filling requests. So yeah, there are something to think about. Good luck.
