Justin (#connectome, 10 Nov): verifying a claim shows a small card "error:invalidtitle", though the verification goes through.

`addTalkPageEntry` named the talk page `'Talk:' + pageName`. That's right only in main. On `Cryptograss:`, `Song:`, `Release:` and every other namespace it made `Talk:Cryptograss:…`, which the API refuses; checked on the live wiki: `Talk:Cryptograss:Connectome/Verifying_ensembles/Mockup` → *invalid: refers to a talk page that cannot exist*, `Cryptograss talk:…` → valid. The claim edit runs first, so it saved and the talk note was lost.

Now `mw.Title.newFromText(pageName).getTalkPage()`, with `mediawiki.Title` added to the module's dependencies. A namespace with no talk namespace skips the note instead of erroring.

Checked: `node --check` on the file, extension.json parses. Not run in a browser: the module only loads on the wiki.

Redeploy: pickipedia.
