I think it makes does go without saying, considering the bigger part of mentor IMO isn't really knowledge of the game (although that is important), but people trusting you to not abuse the info you get. If nobody can vouch for your character, you're shit outta luck.
An applicant can't verify their knowledge without someone else actually seeing them in game confirming that they know stuff. It's not like we have a test required to become mentor (which would be dumb don't do that), so the only other course of option is that people need to recognize you to some degree, and make their judgements on that.
A well-written application can only take you so far, since plenty of people can whip up a decent sounding few paragraphs. Community involvement is an easy way to back up those words with actions, which are a bit more tangible.
