Setting the correct preference for the watchlist param while calling the edit api (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Edit) should be enough.
I submitted pull request #300 for a patch which adds a "Do not add pages to watchlist" preference. When that preference is checked, it adds "watchlist: 'nochange'" to all the edit and move requests made by the script. It also makes it so the script never adds [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation/recent]] to the watchlist, since there is no value in doing so each time a draft is approved.
