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.
Prevents word wraps (line breaks) within text or inside a link which contains spaces or hyphens (-).

{{inline block}} does the same and allows further style customization, but does not automatically add the "avoidwrap" CSS class. {} produces multiple non-breaking spaces (or a single one). {} can be used to provide a (brief) exception within a no-wrapping area. {{normalwraplink}} allows links to wrap when they otherwise would not.
The non-breaking space works within links exactly like a regular space. Thus you can link to [[J. R. R. Tolkien]] directly and it will render as J. R. R. Tolkien. The initials will not be separated across a line break. However, renders the source text harder to read and edit. Avoid using it unless it is really necessary to ...
If this template is wrapped with the {{nowrap}} template, or is wrapped with a parent HTML object with {{{1}}} defined, the output will not be broken into lines; it will appear as one continuous space-separated string of text. Note that no space-replacement is performed; non-breaking spaces and similar are respected, and reproduced in the output.
This will join the in-text cite to the preceding text, preventing it from wrapping; a space will show between the text and the in-text cite; not supported by IE6 and IE7 /* Add a non-breaking space before the in-text citation */ sup . reference : before { content : "\A0" ; text-decoration : none ; }
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).
The zero-width space can be used to mark word breaks in languages without visible space between words, such as Thai, Myanmar, Khmer, and Japanese. [1] In justified text, the rendering engine may add inter-character spacing, also known as letter spacing, between letters separated by a zero-width space, unlike around fixed-width spaces. [1]
