Description

We need a CSS rule that prohibits the Pilcrow (¶) from jumping to the next line. It's hidden so it looks weird.

Research direction
Examine the theme's CSS files (e.g., `sphinx rtd theme/static/css/theme.css`) to locate the styling for section anchors or the pilcrow character. Add a CSS rule such as `white space: nowrap;` to the relevant selector to prevent the pilcrow from wrapping alone to the next line. Verify the fix by building the documentation and testing in a browser. No existing pull requests or assignees were found.
