Description

This change is purely aesthetic; I thought it'd be cute and fun to style description lists as lined paper. Here's a live demo.

All I did was make changes to certain SCSS files. The colors match the color scheme, though the light mode version looks more "paper-like". The lines are achieved by setting background-image to linear-gradient, while the holes are inline SVGs.

No [additional] dependencies required.

This modification gives the description lists a skeuomorphic look, which creates a significant visual mismatch with the original UI style. For that reason, I won't be considering it for merge. Regardless, thank you for your hard work!
