::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]].

::: I'm a big fan of consistency, so this is making me itch. It's generally proper to italicize books (and use quotes on shorter things). We really should italicize all book and series titles. This includes in-world books. Why does inconsistency exist? Probably because people are lazy and/or forgetful. :) I'd say when we see this done incorrectly it should be fixed just like any basic writing error.
::: Unfortunately the error is very widespread. Just look at [[Cosmere]] for example. That probably further contributes to people doing it wrong, and it means there's a lot of work necessary to fix it. Don't suppose there's a magical way to change every instance of the ones that are always book/series titles?
::: The biggest problem is the books template, where italics are being used for future books. Parenthesis are already used to note shorter/tangential books that aren't directly part of the main series. Is there an alternate way to note future books in that template? Perhaps flipping the current convention, and using non-italicized text to note future books?
