Hi,
Due to a misconfiguration I used the wrong author on the most latest commits on both of the AUR packages I maintain.
I understand that it's non trivial but can I ask for both commits to be removed? As they are both young packages I can also resubmit them from scratch if easier to delete them totally.
Thanks,
Shak (sshaikh on arch)

I just missed you on IRC...
Which packages are they? Is the wrong author private information which you don't want out in the open?

They can't be deleted and resubmitted, the AUR preserves old deleted packages to prevent packages from disappearing.
The *only* solution is moderator action; redacting accidentally uploaded personal info is part of our job. (It is fairly simple, using a stock command to rewrite history and force push.)
I have fixed these for you:
- python-london-unified-prayer-times - termite-putty-clipboard

Eli and I discussed the issue on IRC and he kindly did one better and amended the author directly on the commits concerned.
