I wasn't sure about it. I don't know what script was about to be launched and if it was launched. When I removed those hacks it broken `Special:Following` page by adding a headline with count without any data. When I checked in database it seems the date condition can be removed:
`mysql> select wl_namespace, wl_title from watchlist where wl_namespace = 1200 and not wl_title like '%/%'  and wl_wikia_addedtimestamp <= '2012-01-31'   ORDER BY wl_wikia_addedtimestamp desc limit 0,15;
Empty set (0.08 sec)`

However, the second condition is more important and this is probably what breaks the page:
`mysql> select wl_namespace, wl_title from watchlist where wl_namespace = 1200 and not wl_title like '%/%' ORDER BY wl_wikia_addedtimestamp desc limit 0,15;
