I find them manually. Go to pagure.io, browse projects and sort by 'most
recent'. About 99% of the first 4-5 pages are clearly spam. They are
either of the form: 'something something certs' with descriptions like '
100% Actual Exam Questions for Best Results' or 'username' description
'exam' and tons of issues with the spam by username.

So, I am not sure we could script a detection super easily. 
Or if we did they wouldn't just adjust...

That would indeed be great, but it would need implementing the way to do
that. Would need voting for projects and some way to flag and still
admins would have to delete stuff. ;(

There's currently 0 automated cleanup. :) It's completely manual, which
is what I am saying we need to fix. We would need to write scripts
and... I am not sure how automated we could make it. :( 
but open to ideas...

Perhaps. 

So, it's sounding like putting the restriction back in place that you be
a contributor to make new projects has reasonable appeal?

We will need to investigate how to do that. Might also need code
changes?
