A different watermark for every admin account that views a deleted
page seems possible. If Wikitruth knows it's being done, and they
have a lot of admin accounts, it'd be harder to make the watermark
difficult to remove. Still possible, though.
You say Wikitruth always had the exact last version of the deleted
page. As a really simple watermark, just add in some extra version
right at the end. If you're dealing with multiple admin accounts,
though, you'd have to use more complicated techniques.
Is it worth the trouble? I don't know.
