Details

Description: AUR4 doesn't show owned repositories for packages in the web interface which have no commits pushed, however, these repositories cannot be owned by any other user. This means people can squat packages and others need an admin to find out who's doing it.

For example, somebody apart from me is currently owning zopflipng-git, but they have no commits pushed, thus it looks like nobody has the repo. When I try to push myself, I'm being denied. I have no ability to contact whoever owns that repository.
This task depends upon

You can access package details of such packages, see e.g. [1], they are just hidden from the search results.
