Description: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/flaghelp/ says that the maintainers will be notified, but this is not true for unmaintained packages: https://projects.archlinux.org/archweb.git/tree/packages/views/flag.py#n94

It would be great if the flaghelp page could mention that because I just spend a while wondering if anyone gets notified in that case.
This task depends upon

An email still gets sent- I'm not sure what you want it to say otherwise. Additionally, I'm unsure why this even matters to you as an end user- whether the mail gets sent to a single user or to a mailing list really makes no difference.

That's really the only additional thing I want it to say - "if the package is unmaintained, an email will be sent to a mailing list" because that's not clear to me without looking into the code.
