Seems like a natural next step is some kinda reputation system for a project's contributors. If you've written 50 successfully merged PRs, you're certainly less likely to make trash in any method. Create a mentorship heirarchy. It sounds very helpful no matter what. Then the people who have merged 0 PRs to the project will likely work harder too, since they know they will be at the most scrutiny
Its trivial for ai to successfully merge 50 prs into the projects of other ai.
It be frustrating for a beginner that every time they try to contribute they are ignored because they have yet to contribute.
