url length overflow

horizontal scroll-bars due to non-multlined links are annoying

the attached image shows the non-desired behavior

Which long URLs are you talking about ? I dont see any in the screenshot.

Comment 3 Krinkle 2010-06-19 22:47:47 UTC
Such long urls shouldn't be used raw on the page. This can be fixed fairly simple by giving the URL a name.

Could you link to the article this link appears in ?

I'm suggesting WONTFIX.
Comment 4 jesse.michs+wikibugs 2010-06-19 22:55:42 UTC
link to that page is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_personality
Comment 5 Krinkle 2010-06-19 23:06:24 UTC
Okay. It should be fixed now.
Comment 6 Krinkle 2010-06-19 23:30:12 UTC
To get back at the original request, this is already being done.
URLs that contain a dash("-") or slash ("/") are being multilined when space is short.
