Hide/Show edits on Special:Newpages like on Special:Recentchanges

Description:
It would be nice to have an option to hide bot edits on Special:Newpages. Many
people on pl.wiki complain about that they can't patrol recently created pages,
because some users with the bot status create a lot of new pages.

edits' from the

also in the

I think it's better than only the bots.

Well, I think that it would probably be a better idea. People asked me only
about hiding bots, so I didn't mention about hiding edits made by anonymous or
logged-in users in this request.
