When opening gedit from dolphin you can fix this annoying problem by modifying
the line that lauches the program. Change:
gedit %U
into:
gedit %U < /dev/null
A similar fix for launching from the command line is discussed here:

Title:
"Untitle Document" opens when opening a document using `gksu[do] gedit
/path/to/file"`.
Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
$ gedit # opens untitled document
$ gedit /path/to/file # opens file
$ sudo gedit /path/to/file # opens file
$ gksu gedit /path/to/file # opens file & untitled document
$ gksudo gedit /path/to/file # opens file & untitled document
The "Untitled Document" should only be opened when no file is
provided, according to `man gedit`.
Additionally, when "Untitled Document" is opened unexpectedly via
gksu[do], its tab icon is shown as the rotating "loading" icon.
Occasionally the icon will stop "spinning", when the tab is focused
/un-focused it will continue spinning, until it freezes again. On the
other had, when I expect "Untitled Document" to be opened (e.g.
`gedit`), its tab icon is the proper "plain-text" icon.
