Thanks for this, Max. A few things may skew these numbers, though. There are the books that don’t have infoboxen. At least on the English Wikipedia, you could catch some of these by comparing against the “Book articles without infoboxes” category (currently 990, plus another 5750 (!) in the Novel articles subcat), but that would only catch those already tagged with the WikiProject Books banner.
Also, did you get these numbers from a transclusion count? There are articles with multiple instances of the template, especially articles on series where the individual books aren’t sufficiently notable. Regardless, I hope this all means that you’re cooking up another effort to link library data into Wikipedia.

Hello All, I was just satisfying my itch to know how many wiki articles are distinctly about books in all of the Wikipedias. The follow is all the infobox books in all the languages and the respective counts. If you add them all up, you get 85,230 . That means we have at most 85,230 articles about books in the entire wikiverse, the actual number is probably less because this double counts to Wikipedias which have articles for the same book.
