Summary: movepages.py with -del does not delete talk page redirect

Initial Comment:
Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r5858, Aug 28 2008, 11:35:51)
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]


when using the movepages.py script with the -del option to delete the leftover redirect, only the redirect for the page is deleted, but not the talk page redirect.

Message:
Mediawiki now supports moving pages without leaving redirects for bots.
Maybe the -del option should just move the page with this option enabled,
save you the deleting of a useless page.
