It's okay! We'll figure it out! :)
In the DFF article, the little template that creates the "Discuss it on the Talk page here" link hadn't had the book title filled in, so instead of going to "Talk:Dawn-s-Family-Feud", it just went to "Talk:" or "Talk". So I think what might have happened is that you created the page at "Talk" but didn't realize it until after you tried to use the template, so you thought that the template changed the title.
Although I'm actually not sure what you mean by "tried to use the template", because the template you created (which looks fine to me, by the way) didn't have "Template:" at the beginning of the title (by which I mean the little box above the main text window when you're creating a page, which is what shows up at the top of the page and in the index and all), it just had "Template:" at the beginning of the name (the thing that determines the page's location, which is what you put in when you're creating a new page). And it looked to me just now like it didn't show up in the list of templates until I changed the title to put "Template:" at the beginning of it. So I'm not sure if you mean the Template:ArticleTalk, which is the one I created that just puts the line at the bottom of the book article to go to the Talk page. I hope this paragraph was at least semi-comprehensible; distinguishing between the page title and the page name is very confusing (and I'm not sure I did it right).
