Image of edit notice display issue

When opening a category page in VE, for instance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Rivers_of_British_Columbia, an edit notice appears giving instructions on category page editing.  Using the latest FF or Chrome on Mac OS 10.6, the notice is chopped off halfway.  See screenshot for details.
Comment 1 Patrick Earley 2013-10-29 19:58:33 UTC
Note: this is issue does not seem to happen on all category pages; At https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Futurama for instance, it displays as it should.
Comment 2 Bartosz Dziewoński 2013-10-29 20:13:14 UTC
That's because the monotype part of the message ("[[Category:Rivers of British Columbia]]") is contained in a <span class="nowrap">, so the text is not line-wrapped just as requested. As it's wider than the area for edit notices, it overflows it, and the rest of the message fills out the space.

This should probably be fixed in the appropriate template, but I guess VE could enlarge the editnotice area if needed (not sure if it's a good idea).
Comment 3 James Forrester 2014-05-09 14:19:26 UTC
Agreeing with MatmaRex here; this is something that should be fixed in the template.
