Remove sentence about collaborative features of Poedit, which is misleading. The feature referred to is simply that Poedit can number the strings for translation consecutively 1, 2, 3, … , so you can ask individual translators to review ranges: "Please translate strings 50-100". (The feature is hidden – you need to choose "View > Show string ID" from the menu). However: (a) This does not work properly - on my screen, the last digit of the id's is always cut off. (b) This is not a good workflow for achieving consistency. It's much better to assign translators individual worlds of the game rather than random samples of 50 strings.
