I still think that we should think before at the purposes of Wikidata pages
(eg metadata for infoboxes and templates),
and then define the metadata. Because as FRBR teach us there are at least 4
"levels" to think of a book, and the metadata needed for these levels are
different.

All of these are standardized descriptors, which are

used in formal library cataloging, and can easily be determined from
standard sources. In some cases, the standard library descriptor
conflicts with the general rules in a particular WP for such things as
names of people or places. (for example, the rule for place of
publication in US cataloging is to transcribe it as given on the
object.) But in reference links at enWP we've been following the
cataloging in the book description, even if it conflicts with what we
would use as an article title; I imagine the intention is to continue
that practice.
The only questions I can foresee is whether we need all the fields, &
whether we should have others as well. I'll comment there where I
think I have something worth saying.

I don't understand if this is or will be in a

Also, what exactly should be done about this mess of proposals for item
types?
