It's not "how many", it's "what types". From the top of my head:
Here's the things totatlly unacceptable:
- Non-convex sectors and surfaces
- Player starts out of sectors
- Invalid surfaces
- Surfaces with more than 24 vertices
This things can be acceptable:
- Non-overlapping adjoins might be OK in some cases. Mostly when
one of them has an extra vertex, but they still overlap.
- Slightly non-planar surfaces are OK. "Slightly" means - you
can't see that the surface isn't planar when you look at it from the
side.
Actually, I wrote a document on JED with many useful tips on how I did
some things and how they were meant to be used. I'll release it shortly.
I'll add a section about consistency errors.

Company's policy.
