Hmm. Did we have a Watermark entry at some point? I don't remember it 
myself, since I never used it, but it's definitely not there now. That 
post was written in 2020 so during the 2.3.x cycle, which makes it all 
the more puzzling.

The way to do this would be to add suitable code to the preamble. The 
Stack Exchange post cited on that page

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/118939/add-watermark-that-overlays-the-images/118987

explains how to do it.
