      When referencing a long URL in a new Confluence page, the screen stops wrapping the lines. I have to scroll far over to the right to save the file, look at the quick help, or perform other options.

            When using the Markup Editor, the quick guide can be found on the right hand side of the screen and also contains a link to the full Markup Guide.

            You can also find information about linking in Confluence in our online documentation under:

            Is this Markup Guide on the Atlassian Jira site?

            I'm not sure if there is a way around that.

            Confluence wraps links into a <span> tag, but even without the span tag, html wouldn't know where to wrap the link and will display it on one single line. I recommend instead of using a long URL to use an alias instead. Please have a look at the Markup Guide for details.

            Cheers,
            Jens
