This template can be used to cause an indentation after a linebreak, in unbulleted lists inside infoboxes and in tables with constrained cell widths, by using {{wbr}} between words in an entry, so that when they wrap they are not mistaken for separate entries. See example infobox to the side.
For years in HTML, a table has always forced an implicit line-wrap (or line-break). So, to keep a table within a line, the workaround is to put the whole line into a table, then embed a table within a table, using the outer table to force the whole line to stay together. Consider the following examples: Wikicode (showing table forces line-break)
It specifies where it would be OK to add a line-break where a word is too long, or it is perceived that the browser will break a line at the wrong place. Whether the line actually breaks is then left up to the browser. The break will look like a space - see soft hyphen below when it would be more appropriate to break the word or line using a ...
HTML equivalent: <br> or <br /> can be used to break line layout. Templates for line breaks: {} can add multiple line breaks. {} and {} adds a break with styling, to clear floating elements. Often used to prevent text from flowing next to unrelated tables or images. Unbulleted list:
Creates a "word break optional" by inserting a wbr ("word break") and zwsp (zero-width space), each of which are intended to signal browsers that a linebreak is acceptable at this point if needed. (zwsp works on some browsers, wbr on others, and it seems there's no harm in just jamming both of them in here—long story.)
This is the {{nowraplinks}} template. This template works in conjunction with {{nowraplinks end}} to prevent word wraps (line breaks) inside links that include a space or spaces while allowing wraps between links and in normal text. This can be useful, for instance, in long lists of links.
Template:Table alignment (see previous section) will not work on columns of row headers. There are some other limitations listed at Template:Table alignment. In these cases you can try the following method for the first column only. This can be done in the wikitext source editor.
