Ensure redaction text does not go off of page

[gravitystorm]

The redaction text at https://www.openstreetmap.org/redactions/101 doesn't wrap, and so it makes the page super-wide. I don't think there's any reason to avoid wrapping here, even in pre-formatted blocks.

If there is some reason to prevent wrapping, then the block should be scrollable but the page width otherwise unaffected.

I would like to work on this issue. I am new to open source contributions.

I edited the redaction so it's no longer causing this particular page to go extra-wide, but the root cause should still be fixed.

It's also worth checking what other markdown-using pages (diaries, messages, etc) on the site do for wide pre-formatted blocks.

It looks like you applied some CSS and popped the code into a container. I figured that was going to be my approach. If you agree, I will take a look at the other markdown pages as you suggested.

[pnorman]

I didn't change any CSS, I just edited the text of the message.

[robotscissors]

Understood. Let me look at your solution and see if it needs to be applied elsewhere.

I didn't have a solution, I edited the markdown of the redaction. No code was changed. Other redactions with a long line in a markdown code block would have the same problem.

@pnorman HI Paul, I am a newbie and this is a huge application, so forgive me.

I am having trouble recreating the issue in my current environment. He is what I have done.

• I installed the application locally and was able to see the website at localhost:3000.
• I created an account for myself and validated it through an email link that was displayed on the server.
• I created a diary entry with a long string using markdown `` to encapsulate the entire message for the worst case, but it wrapped just fine.

Any other hints to recreate the issue in the development environment.

You need to give yourself the "moderator" flag and then go to /redactions/new and create a new redaction. The one originally linked in this issue used four spaces in front of a long line to format it as code.

Thank you. :) I appreciate your help.
