+### Shared include `wagtailadmin/shared/last_updated.html` is no longer available
+
+The undocumented shared include `wagtailadmin/shared/last_updated.html` is no longer available as it used the legacy Bootstrap tooltips and was not accessible. If you need to achieve a similar output, an element that shows a simple date with a tooltip for the full date, use the `human_readable_date` template tag instead.
+
+**Before**
+
+```html+django
+{% include "wagtailadmin/shared/last_updated.html" with last_updated=my_model.timestamp %}
+```
+
+**After**
+
+```html+django
+{% load wagtailadmin_tags %}
+
+<!-- ... -->
+{% human_readable_date my_model.timestamp %}
+```

 ### Tag (Tagit) field usage now relies on data attributes
 
 The `AdminTagWidget` widget has now been migrated to a Stimulus controller, if using this widget in Python, no changes are needed to adopt the new approach.
