This page explains different methods for creating, controlling and preventing line breaks and word wraps in Wikipedia articles and pages. When a paragraph or line of text is too long to fit on one line, web browsers, like many other programs, automatically wrap the text to the next line.
However, using a non-breaking space can lead to uneven justified text and additional unwanted spaces or line breaks in the text in certain programs. [8] Alternatively, sentence spacing can be controlled in HTML by separating every sentence into a separate element (e.g., a span), and using CSS to finely control sentence spacing. [9]
By the 1960s, electronic phototypesetting systems ignored runs of white space in text. [7] This was also true for the World Wide Web, as HTML normally ignores additional spacing, [27] [28] although in 2011 the CSS 2.1 standard officially added an option that can preserve additional spaces. [29]
Neither {} nor {} use em spaces, but rather mix en and em spaces, whereas {{in5|n}} avoids en spaces altogether and will actually skip n count of spaces, as if inserting n repetitions of an em space. This is done by alternating em spaces with an em-size non-breaking —by definition, it must be the same—in order to skip a wide area.
Sometimes, a minor fix will help eliminate or reduce whitespace. This may involve adding or removing one blank line from some part of the page, re-ordering templates, or the use of a gallery for multiple images. If an embedded list creates white space, using two or more columns may solve the problem.
Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce reacted after throwing out the first pitch before the game between the Cleveland Guardians and the Seattle Mariners at Progressive Field in 2023.
The Protecting Women’s Private Spaces Act would keep men, including those who say they “identify” as women, from using women’s private, protected spaces.
A second common application of non-breaking spaces is in plain text file formats such as SGML, HTML, TeX and LaTeX, whose rendering engines are programmed to treat sequences of whitespace characters (space, newline, tab, form feed, etc.) as if they were a single character (but this behavior can be overridden).
