In an effort to make things more "user friendly" (read "harder to mess up"), may I suggest that you alter this code...
{{#switch: {{lc:{{{line_color|Љ}}}}} | novel=#93B8C4 | shortstory=#AFDCEC | poetry=#FFF380 | play=#CCFB5D | screenplay=#A0C544 | nonfiction=#636363 | comic=#CC6666 | unpublished=#DBDBDB | Љ=#CCCCFF | {{{line_color}}} }}
...with this code...
{{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | novel | novella | novelette | novellette | book | output=#93B8C4 | default= {{ ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | shortstory | short story | shortstorycollection | short story collection | short storycollection | collection | output=#AFDCEC | default= {{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | poetry | poem | poetry collection | poetrycollection | poem collection | poemcollection | output=#FFF380 | default= {{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | play | theatrical play | theatricalplay | output=#CCFB5D | default= {{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | screenplay | screen play | movie script | output=#A0C544 | default= {{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | nonfiction | non-fiction | non fiction | output=#636363 | default= {{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | comic | comicbook | comic book | comic script | comicbook script | comic book script | comicscript | comicbookscript | comic bookscript | output=#CC6666 | default= {{ifeqor | compare={{{line_color|Љ}}} | unpublished | un published | notpublished | not published | output=#DBDBDB | default= {{#ifeq: {{{line_color|Љ}}} | Љ | #CCCCFF | {{{line_color}}} }} }} }} }} }} }} }} }} }}
While I realize that it would take up more space in the coding, it would allow for users who accidentally place spaces in the input value as well as people who aren't paying attention and use a similar name that isn't quite correct. We shouldn't pander to people who can't pay attention, but — at the same time — I expect people not to pay attention and would rather not have their mistakes reflect on Wikipedia; thus, idiot-proof templates (or as close to it as we can get).

I like to make
a change to added a book number column to the left of title and the option to change the title align from "center" to "left" to be inline with {{
Episode list}}.

My suggestion is to put in alt_isbn because a lot of books have more than one. the hardcover is different then than the paper back. If you were to add then when people put these in wiki-pages they can put both.

Sometimes the "short summary" row doesn't span all columns, as in The Pearl Saga. But it works correctly in other articles like Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark and The Accursed Kings. Also, is there a reason why the table aligns center by default when the wikitable is set at less than 100%, as in The Accursed Kings? Or is this normal?— TAnthony Talk 20:39, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Remove the bold around the title per MOS:BOLD. Also required is a change from:

The note is not displayed (see Guin Saga, for example.) Also, can there be added another | isbn = parameter that does not display ISBN. analogous to {{ISBNT| ? Smeagol 17 ( talk) 09:15, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
|isbn_note=
