Don't display MediaWiki:Talkpagetext on new discussion pages

Description:
The current solution that MediaWiki:Newarticletext and MediaWiki:Talkepagetext are displayed at the same time leads to the problem that it's quiet hard to seperate the contents of the two message boxes. In the view of usability it's easier to have just one messagebox for a topic at the same time. It's a sellout when you try to position and arrange the phrases to get a good result in both cases.

Eneas, I went to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Foo_Bar&action=edit and could not reproduce the problem, so I think that we have now solved the issue. I'm very sorry that it took so long for someone to respond to this bug report; thank you for filing it.

And thank you for the patch! I tried to apply it and it would not apply to trunk, since trunk has changed so much; EditPage.php no longer includes "if( $this->mTitle->isTalkPage() ) {".
