The broader question to the experts: how to replace the system messages
with something invisible without CSS tricks?
John, the following method works but it really a desperate
and wretched one: add to your MediaWiki:Common.css page the following:
span.mw-usertoollinks>a:nth-of-type(2), {
display:none;
}
This will hide the contribslink but the extra "|" will remain.
