screenshot of issue

For my wiki I have selected the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license. Since this thing has an insanely long name, it wraps to the next line in the footer on the main page.
It's not a problem, but ugly. Also potentially confusing since the 'powered my Mediawiki' logo is right next to it with no visible boundary, making it seem unlikely that the text would continue on the line below.

I am running Mediawiki 1.13.3 in the Dutch language.

The problem has been seen in Firefox on Ubuntu as well as in Firefox and IE6 on Windows XP.

Attached is a screenshot of the issue in firefox on ubuntu.

Not really a bug, just sloppy design. I think no one will invest the time to 'fix' this as Monobook is no longer actively maintained. As a workaround, you can edit [[MediaWiki:Wikimedia-copyright]].
