I have come up with the following (when trying to merge array _uids to a
single out_uid):

-- try to copy as many reviews of this user as possible
INSERT INTO words_reviews (
uid,
author,
nice,
review,
updated
) SELECT
out_uid,
author,
nice,
review,
updated
FROM words_reviews
WHERE uid <> out_uid
AND uid = ANY(_uids)
ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING;

DELETE FROM words_reviews
WHERE uid <> out_uid
AND uid = ANY(_uids);

-- try to copy as many reviews by this user as possible
INSERT INTO words_reviews (
uid,
author,
nice,
review,
updated
) SELECT
uid,
out_uid,
nice,
review,
updated
FROM words_reviews
WHERE author <> out_uid
AND author = ANY(_uids)
ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING;
