Checking for yourself

Running simple python script does the trick:

# OpenRCT2 translator's helper utility
#   analze what strings are currently not in use

import re
from pathlib import Path
p = Path('.')

ids_to_constants = {}
ids_to_texts = {}

with list(p.glob('**/en-GB.txt'))[0].open() as f: str_file = f.readlines()

for line in str_file:
    search_result = re.match(r"^STR_([0-9]{4})\s+:(.*)", line)
    if search_result:
        ids_to_texts[int(search_result.group(1))] = search_result.group(2)
        
for h_files in list(
    p.glob('**/UiStringIds.h'))\
    + list(p.glob('**/StringIds.h'))\
    + list(p.glob('**/RideStringIds.h')):
    with h_files.open() as f: h_file = f.readlines()
    for line in h_file:
        search_result = re.match(r"^\s*([0-9A-Z_]*)\s*=\s*([0-9]{1,4})", line)
        if search_result:
            ids_to_constants[
                int(search_result.group(2))] = search_result.group(1)

for key in ids_to_texts.keys():
   if key not in ids_to_constants.keys() and len(ids_to_texts[key]) > 0:
       print(("STR_%i    :%s")%(key, ids_to_texts[key]))
