The signature script (~~~~) appears to cause the page trouble and the software tries to double-post on my system often. Fortunatly the script itself changes on the talk pages so it defaults to a edit conflict error. However, that means I don't default back to the main talk page as I should, but to the edit talk page and have to check each time to make certain it was just that and not a true edit conflict with another user.
Forgot to add: Running Firefox 5, Windows 7 x64
Sounds like the sort of thing that would happen if the page load is slow and you click the save page button more than once. Does this occur if you're careful to click save page only once? Does it occur if you make a test edit including a subst:ed template, but no signature? Does it occur consistently? What wiki does this occur on, what browser are you using, and do you have any custom javascript? Note that if this occurs when the form is actually submitted twice (for any reason), this is a dupe of bug 17368. If this occurs even if the form is only submitted once, then something strange is happening.

I know its been marked duplicate, but I'll mention it here because the patten that gets me it is completely different. This happens regularly (though not always) when editing a talk page with a signature. I have made certain to be very careful at time to click the button only once and it will still occur. Substituted ones do not seem to be prone to this problem, at least to the point that I've noticed. As mentioned I'm using Firefox 5. I don't believe I have any custom javascript running.
It happens so frequently that you had already reported it. :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 26821 ***
