The Template:nowrap stops wrapping of specific text. It prevents word wraps (line breaks) within text or inside a link which contains spaces or hyphens ("-"). The size of the nowrapped text becomes the minimum width of that paragraph.

Before you use this template you might want to read up on Wikipedia:Line break handling.

Usage:  {{nowrap|these words stay together}}
{{nowrap|a, b, c, or d.}}
{{nowrap| merry-go-round }}
{{nowrap| [[4-part harmony]]}}

For simplicity, the template names {{j}} (join) or {{nobr}} or {{nobreak}} can be used, instead of "nowrap", as quick redirects to {{nowrap}}.

Examples[brontekst bewerken]

"They held {{nowrap|10 kg (22 lb)}} in total."


May render like this:

They held 10 kg (22 lb)
in total.


Or like this:

They held
10 kg (22 lb) in total.


But not render like this:

They held 10 kg (22
lb) in total.
"He encountered {{nowrap|a tiger}} in the woods."


May render like this:

He encountered a tiger
in the woods.


Or like this:

He encountered
a tiger in the woods.


But not like this:

He encountered a
tiger in the woods.
We saw {{j |1 [[black rhino]]}} but {{j|800 [[zebra]]s}}.


May render like this:

We saw Ankra:J but
800 zebras.


Or like this:

We saw Ankra:J
but 800 zebras.


But not render like this:

We saw 1 black
rhino
but 800 zebras.

Handling equal-sign or bar[brontekst bewerken]

Templates have problems to handle parameter data that contains equal-signs "=" or vertical bars "|" (pipes). In such cases, consider using {{nowrap begin}} + {{nowrap end}} instead. But there are also workarounds:

For text that includes an equal-sign "=", precede the text with 1=. For example:

{{nowrap|1=2 + 2 = 4}}

Which renders this:

2 + 2 = 4

For text that includes a vertical bar "|", escape the bar(s) with "|" or "{{!}}". For instance put two bars "|2|" like this:

{{nowrap|&#124;2&#124; < 3}}  or  {{nowrap|{{!}}2{{!}} < 3}}

Which renders this:

|2| < 3

Technical details[brontekst bewerken]

The actual code that does the job is this HTML+CSS code:

<span style="white-space:nowrap">This text will not wrap</span>

Spaces at the beginning or end of the text will fall outside the no-wrap tag in the rendered text due to Wikimedia rendering mechanisms.

The templates {{j}}, {{nobr}} and {{nobreak}} redirect here.
