Yes, I observed this already and asked how to handle these cases in a 
Github issue on 24-Jan-2020: 
https://github.com/metamath/set.mm/issues/1432#issuecomment-578288636

No, nobody else should spent a lot of work for theorems in others' 
mathboxes (to shorten proofs or to replace names are exceptions, of course).

Only the mathbox owner can/should judge if one of his/her theorems is odd.

Can we contact people and ask them to transfer them themselves?

Usually Norm does this, at least if no contact data is available.

Is it ok to delete things from mathboxes without replacing them (I imagine

Deletions should be done by the owner or by Norm (or on Norm's behalf).

Yes, this is a good idea, and I practiced it already (smgrpismgmOLD 
<http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fus.metamath.org%2Fmpeuni%2Fghomf1o.html&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNEraRkWXdBMqu9TuY2ucRhYJvnMkA>
 
). By this, the theorems are clearly marked as not to be used anymore, 
neither in new proofs nor in existing ones (i.e. have to be replaced 
sometime). By providing a date ("Obsolete version of ~ sgrpmgm as of 
3-Feb-2020") everybody has enough time (usually about one year) to clean up 
his/her mathboxes until the lifetime of the OLD theorem expires and the OLD 
theorem (together with all theorems using it) is deleted.

I think it is covered and can be deleted resp. tagged with OLD.

 The same, it is covered and can be deleted resp. tagged with OLD.

 The same, it is covered and can be deleted resp. tagged with OLD.  The 
symbols may be different, but the contents are qualitatively identical. By 
the way, the corresponding lemmata (elghomlem1 etc.) should also be 
suffixed by OLD and marked as "obsolete".
