5 tilde trick

As of 2020-06-28, it's possible to insert a timestamp on a page by inserting "~~~~~" on a page. Like this: 06:16, 29 June 2020 (UTC) (<= that was inserted when I first saved this page).

Note the time is in UTC. That's roughly the timezone of much of the United Kingdom, though not always.
