Request PKGBUILD review and discussion for vim-plug

Recently, I installed vim-plug through AUR/vim-plug but found it's out-of-date and causing some problems.
By searching the AUR repo, there are 4 package for installing this plugin:
1. vim-plug
2. vim-plug-git
3. neovim-plug
4. neovim-plug-git

In fact, they pack the same project "https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug", the only difference is the path to put initial script. It could be confusing to users. I wonder if we could merge them, and provide options for user to choose install for vim/neovim ?

and it seems the maintainer of vim-plug is no longer maintaining it, could I update the PKGBUILD directly ?
this is my PKGBUILD, it would be nice if someone could review it and give me some advice.

PKGBUILD:

pkgname=vim-plug
pkgver=0.11.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A minimalist Vim plugin manager."
arch=('any')
