Twenty Thirteen: Don't show comment link on single post views

[markmcwilliams]

It seems pointless to show the comment link, when they're literately just below that link!

I know it links to the comment area, but it looks out of place?

The other only suggestion I have is to move it up beside the likes of the date, category and any tags?

See the attached screenshots, and patch.

I can see where you're coming from. There might be an author bio and (lots of) comments between the link and the comment form, though.

[markmcwilliams]

In theory, the author bio isn't going to be overly large. But as it stands, unless you have multiple authors, that doesn't show anyway. There's maybe an argument if, like you say, there's lots of comments. I'd say for the majority of users, it'll be out of place though.

Actually there is not, I was wrong. If there are comments it links to the comment list. Let's get rid of it on single pages, good call markmcwilliams.

Could you update your patch to include the post format templates (content-*.php)?
