Sorry for the slow reply. I have an update now.

The pledge isn't a way of signing up to be an advisor, it's there for the advisors, but also available for anyone to sign to say they will follow the same best practices.

But either way, unfortunately the advisor project didn't work as well as we hoped. Few new people signed up to be advised, and even fewer followed through. It was popular with admins though, so we may try something similar in the future. But that might not happen (and certainly won't before the UCP is finished).

However, the advisor code is still in place, and any admin can add it to their wiki. You just need to follow the instructions here. Global advisors will still be available too, but we aren't adding any new ones.

I hope that explains everything!
