Syntax

{{nowrap|your text}}

Example

{{nowrap|34 kg}} - Assures that the unit appears on the same line as the number.

Handling interpreted characters

For text that includes an equals sign "=", precede the text with 1=. For example:
{{nowrap|1=2 + 2 = 4}}
Which renders:
2 + 2 = 4
For text that includes a vertical bar "|", escape the bar(s) with | or {{!}}. For example:
{{nowrap|&#124;2&#124; < 3}}
Which renders:
|2| < 3
