: Where are you getting italics-as-unpublished from? I've always thought that we use italics on book titles similar to how they are italicised throughout wikipedia for example. It's a way to emphasise them, and especially when they end up having to be included on in-world articles it makes it more obvious that it's not in-world? All the infoboxes automatically italicise the books row. Though we tend not to in navboxes, maybe we should? That I guess is a place where we don't italicise books. --[[User:Fbstj|Joe ST]] ([[User talk:Fbstj|talk]]) 08:02, 9 September 2017 (MST)
:: Well, I'm not sure of all the history here, but if you look in [[Template:Books]], all the upcoming books are italicized, and in the past, they've been un-italicized as they've been published. I actually never noticed that in the info boxes they are italicized, and it does help to distinguish in-world vs. meta. Sort of, because in-world stuff is labeled that way anyway, like [[The Way of Kings (in-world)]]. Anyway, no big deal, but it seems like it should be consistent. Honestly, I kind of like the Books template because I can immediately view all the upcoming books.
::If you look in wikipedia, it looks like book titles are italicized. Poems and shorter works have quotes. For example, [[Wikipedia:The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken]] within a collection called [[Wikipedia:Mountain Interval|Mountain Interval]].
