:It makes autoformatting much easier in the vast majority of cases. In cases where the title is excessively long, the boolean parameter "wide_logo" should be used to force the URLs to appear under the logo. If that's still not enough, the title should be artificially broken into two lines with a <br/> tag in the "name" parameter.

::Koveras – thanks for your reply :).  I agree that the name parameter ''can'' be used, and with a forced line break – I'm just struggling to understand why there is an aversion to not allow breaks in URLs :/  Anyway, I'll try to remember the name parameter in future!  Rgds, [[User:Hoof Hearted|Hoof Hearted]] 05:06, 23 June 2011 (PDT)

:::The aversion is there because a wiki title, as a single mnemonic unit, should normally not be broken, even if it stretches the infobox out a little. Also, "one link = one line" formatting is easy to digest, which is why the template normally strives to preserve it. If it obviously doesn't work, then it should be corrected manually, but such cases are rare... --[[User:Koveras|Koveras]] 14:26, 23 June 2011 (PDT)
