Some questions I have not yet seen on the Chicago Manual of Style Q&A page:

1. What is the correct way to cite a tweet?
2. If a large part of my paper is from Wikipedia, is there a special way to format this, or should I just use a blockquote?
3. If I am quoting my Facebook home page, do I need separate citations for all of my friends' entries that appear there?
4. If the same quotation occurs in the author's Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, do I need to cite all of them or is one enough?
5. If I re-use material from one of my papers that I submitted to alllfreeessays.com, should I cite that site?

I think if you assemble another ten or fifteen of these, you have a nice backmatter piece for the back of Chronicle of Higher Education.

This is great. I agree with the other commenter - come on, you can come up with five more!
