When a GTEGeneral Translation Editor A General Translation Editor (often referred to as GTE) is a person, who has global access to validate strings on **all projects for a specific locale.** makes someone a PTE, they’ll usually comment here afterwards, and the original poster or someone from the global mentors’ team (that have editor access to the blog) will mark the request as resolved. We currently have no (easy accessible) log about who approved the PTE role. Oh: And it’s totally fine to handle PTE rights without any need to request it here in the global blog.
