Hey Wolfgang. I took a look at the command reference you linked me to
and it unfortunately isn't descriptive enough for me.

All I want to do is to make the font small, italicized, and not start
off the side of the page like it is now.

I'm using the following. The colours are fine, but the rest is not:

\setupmargindata[
    style={smallitalic\switchtobodyfont[3pt]}]

\setupinmargin[
    background=color, 
    color=colour_text,
    backgroundcolor=colour_page]
