The recent big update to Fandom broke more than a few of my templates which referenced stuff I had in my Wikia.css. Apparently it's now necessary for all templates to be self-contained, hence why so many are now broken.

The problem for me is that I'm awful at syntax, so I have no idea how to translate what's written on my Wikia.css into the syntax that's needed for the templates.

Here is my quote template (I included the old CSS syntax in the template so you can quickly see what used to be written for it in the CSS). I managed to get the side bar back since that's pretty easy, but the other visual parts of the template I just don't know how to do. Here is the quote template from another wiki I used as a base since I thought it looked beautiful.

So it looks like the problems I'm having are the following:

The big Times New Roman quote marks do not appear
The citation text is italicised when I don't have it specified as being italicised in the template (is that just automatic or something? It's not meant to be that way)
The text is hugging the side bar when it should have more of a gap (to make room for the Times New Roman quote marks
The quote text and the citation text are reeeaally far apart when they should be closer together. Although when I look at the template from the other wiki I'm basing mine off of I notice that the citation text doesn't go all the way to the bottom of the side bar. So the side bar goes just a bit lower.

I'm currently attempting to use a template (Template:Documentation) that invokes a module (Module:Documentation), but am finding that it only produces script errors. All my other templates that invoke modules work perfectly, but any that use the Documentation template (which invokes the Documentation module) give script errors instead of their proper template documentation. That is to say, the other templates work fine, but their documentation simply displays a script error. I don't quite know what part of the module makes it so that the template can't invoke it properly. I saw on another thread that it was due to the module having "require('Module:No globals')", because apparently the No globals module is broken on FANDOM. I attempted to remove that line from the only module on my wiki that has it (Module:Message box) as the Message box module appeared on the script error message. Unfortunately removing it did not appear to do anything. Additionally, I am (relatively) certain that there were other templates on my wiki which invoked the Message box module without problem, so I'm of a mind that it's the Documentation module which is somehow causing the problems. I would appreciate any help with this. Thank you in advance!
