How to Find Deleted Torrents in Deluge

If you keep seeding torrents that have been removed from a tracker, some trackers will harass you with messages like the following, from OiNK:

You have at least one torrent in your client that’s been deleted from our system. Right now it keeps announcing uselessly to the tracker. Please stop or remove all OiNK torrents that don’t exist on our site any more. You will get this message once for every 100 announces you make for nonexistent torrents.

It is simple to identify which torrents are not left on the tracker in Deluge (0.5.1). Just look in the “Status” column. Probably, most torrents will say either “Seeding” or “Leeching”. Look for torrents that stay at “Connecting” for a long time–that’s probably what you’re looking for. Select them and press the “Remove Torrent” icon, making sure not to remove the data.

Problem solved!
