             Bug #: 40609
           Summary: Some RTL interface has incredibly large width, causes
                    horizontal scrolling
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.19.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Internationalization
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

Pages in non-Special namespaces in some wikis using the RTL interface (examples
below) have a very large width, which makes a horizontal scrollbar to appear.
This happens with many browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, ...) and many OS's
(Mac OS, Windows, ...).

Here are a few examples:

http://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/نابليون_الأول
http://fa.wikipedia.org/wiki/ناپلئون_بناپارت
http://fa.wikibooks.org/wiki/آموزش_زبان_انگلیسی
http://mzn.wikipedia.org/wiki/تبرستون_علویون

I can see the same problem in other projects in following RTL langauges: fa,
mzn, ar. I haven't been able to reproduce it in Hebrew wikis of Wikimedia.
Given that multiple projects are affected, it looks like a MediaWiki-level
CSS-related bug.
