I would like to know about OSM process for separating good contributions from bad ones. Similar non-map projects could benefit from learning how they did and how they do.

There isn't really a process at all. The barrier to entry is so high that those dedicated enough to map usually make it through with good intentions.

Mapping is really hard, and even with all the work we (OSM) have done to make it easier, we still get far less than 1 percent of our users to actively contribute.
