Example Use Case: See who did what in a translation

Sometimes it is necessary to see who made specific changes in a translation for a particular phrase. You may be questioning the quality of the translation or just need to know the thinking that went into the translation. Looking at the history can tell you who made the latest (and previous) changes.
