The text getting out of bounds

Consider https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours/Office_hours_2014-08-19 for example.

The word-wrap is not seen, and makes it difficult for the user to read.
Comment 1 Glaisher 2014-09-29 17:42:17 UTC
There is no bug here. This is due to the <pre> HTML tag in the wikitext. <http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_pre.asp>
Comment 2 Glaisher 2014-09-29 17:54:05 UTC
[[m:Special:Diff/10042755]] is a possible solution.
Comment 3 Glaisher 2014-09-30 11:08:08 UTC
using <poem> instead of <pre> is a better solution. I just learnt of it today.
