When to use

[edit source]

Use this template when you want to keep text together on one line, such as:

  • Dates
  • Measurements with units
  • Names or titles that look awkward when split
  • Short phrases within table cells and infobox templates

Example in context

[edit source]
The city is located {{Nowrap|50 miles}} from the coast.

This ensures "50 miles" stays together rather than potentially wrapping as:

> The city is located 50
> miles from the coast.
