I may have forgotten to check this thread for months... oops. Wasn't expecting a square clarification question in here.

I agree with Jaymes on both points. However, I believe I ended up deciding any typographical symbol counted when I was picking out books for Storygraph recommendations. (I probably should have changed the square description for clarity, mb.) Technically, they're not all punctuation, but Wikipedia seems to take the broader stance (which is where I figure most people would look up what counts), so why not?

Thanks for getting back to me - in the end I used that square for 'Slaughterhouse 5: The Children's Crusade A Duty-Dance With Death'. I think the punctuation there is unambiguous!
