Then you should not perhaps not call it 'Contrib' repository if noone
that you do not personally know can add content to it.

The Fedora project has published very good guidelines which explain
how to build high quality packages:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines

As mentioned before, spec files or SRPMs can be reviewed locally
(using lint) and via bugtracker.

Mentorship could help new packagers to build 'standard conform' packages.

Rebuild could happen automatically in koji.

In my pov the requirements that have to be met to become a developer
could be lined out very clearly. Membership applications could then be
discussed within a board.

Which means you are the king, feeding the folk?

Not very 'Community' orientated, sorry.
