Codacoder Thanks for your help. It is also the "the story river that explodes across the screen" for me when I close the sidebar.
The control panel sizes you refer to is controlPanel > Appearance > Them Tweaks > Sizes. The SideBar width was unaltered and all other sizes, but while I was trying your suggestion I discovered the solution! - Somehow FireFox had a bug in it, opening the wiki in a separate tab it did not have a problem. - The Tab was pinned in FireFox and somehow a miss-setting remained stored in that tab, despite browser restarts and wiki reloads. - I remove and closed the pinned tab, loaded the wiki in a new tab and pined that. Thanks all for you help, Happy festive season.
