In my personal file I created a Source for Facebook using the Message Boards and forums template. The fields there for the Master source are: Name of Forum: Facebook Type: Social Network URL: www.facebook.com
Details that can be entered for this template are: Author Last and Given Names Title: Here I use Profile page, About page for personal information from those pages or the first few words of a general post since Facebook does not Title posts. Date: Date of the posting, I usually leave it blank for Profile and About page entries since Facebook does not date those.
