(double apostrophes) in the parameters would still create an  element. Visually, it would be redundant with  &mdash; quotes will be in italics with or without. So the  could be safely removed, but it wouldn't be urgent.

I don't mind doing semi-automated edits on every quote, but that would blow up RecentChanges for the day. It might be more polite to set up a bot.

The dash was for a mobile skin quirk, but I found a way to do it without the dash. See Template:Quote/draft for an update.

I searched the database dumps and found non-italicized quotes on three user pages. The change will make those quotes italics, is that okay?
