You can always mark the relevant messages with # and then run B r on
them.

,----
| B r runs the command gnus-summary-respool-article, which is an
| interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-sum.el'.
| 
| It is bound to B r, <menu-bar> <Article> <Copy, move,... (Backend)>
| <Respool article...>.
| 
| (gnus-summary-respool-article &optional N METHOD)
| 
| Respool the current article.
| The article will be squeezed through the mail spooling process again,
| which means that it will be put in some mail newsgroup or other
| depending on `nnmail-split-methods'.
| If N is a positive number, respool the N next articles.
| If N is a negative number, respool the N previous articles.
| If N is nil and any articles have been marked with the process mark,
| respool those articles instead.
| 
| Respooling can be done both from mail groups and "real" newsgroups.
| In the former case, the articles in question will be moved from the
| current group into whatever groups they are destined to.  In the
| latter case, they will be copied into the relevant groups.

You can use B q on a message to see what splitting will do to it, if you
actually do B r on it.

,----
| B q runs the command gnus-summary-respool-query, which is an
| interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-sum.el'.
| 
| It is bound to B q, <menu-bar> <Article> <Copy, move,... (Backend)>
| <Query respool>.
| 
| (gnus-summary-respool-query &optional SILENT TRACE)
| 
| Query where the respool algorithm would put this article.
