Alad [1] filed a deletion request for deluge-split [2]:

Packaging change without added/different features, does not fall under
exception clause for repository duplicates in AUR

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Rules_of_submission

The submitted PKGBUILDs must not build applications already in any of
the official binary repositories under any circumstances. Check the
official package database for the package. If any version of it
exists, do not submit the package. If the official package is out-of-
date, flag it as such. If the official package is broken or is lacking
a feature, then please file a bug report.
Exception to this strict rule may only be packages having extra
features enabled and/or patches in compare to the official ones. In
such an occasion the pkgname should be different to express that
difference. For example, a package for GNU screen containing the
sidebar patch could be named screen-sidebar. Additionally the
provides=('screen') array should be used in order to avoid conflicts
with the official package
