unn [1] filed a deletion request for wechat [2]:

The maintainer of this AUR package treats its users as a testing ground, with multiple inappropriate submissions in between. Furthermore, they forcibly merged another simple and reliable AUR package, wechat-bin. Due to distrust in this maintainer and considering the large user base of the wechat package, I do not believe this maintainer is capable of maintaining wechat. Therefore, I request its deletion.

[1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/unn/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat/ The deletion request facility is not the comment section, and not a private grievance outlet.

Please submit a constructive and well-reasoned feedback as a comment on the AURweb page of this package. This package is named well in accordance of all AUR guidelines, whereas 'wechat-bin' is not. Upstream is closed-source, so the package should be named 'wechat'. The maintainer of AUR/wechat is actually responsive to user feedback, and has taken many steps so far to address previous objections, e.g. about the former practice of forcing this to use bubblewrap sandbox. Now that is made optional, so users can choose whether to use it with or without bwrap. Please read the AUR submission guidelines [1] and the Nonfree applications package guidelines [2] to understand the expected packaging practices, to which AUR/wechat seems to conform to appropriately.
