Description
when we visit for instance https://wordpress.org/plugins/delete-all-comments/#description
It will tell you this "This plugin has been closed and is no longer available for download."
However ..
visiting the wordpress.org API -> https://api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/1.0/delete-all-comments/
shows
"Plugin not found."
Why not
1) at least show a message here that is the same as on the plugin website ?
-> Task for Make
2) also show this in WP->tools and/or WP->plugins and/or WP->dashboard
-> Task for Core (plugins/API).
Because .. right now , if you have such a plugin installed, and you do not visit the wordpress.org page for that plugin. You have *no* knowledge of this data/info at all.

Created meta API ticket and linked at https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/30465#comment:28
Hello and thanks for the ticket.
This is already discussed in #30465.
As this cannot be fixed on Core side (changes on .org APIs belong to .org, not Core), I'd recommend opening a ticket on Meta Trac: https://meta.trac.wordpress.org
