When entire paragraphs are italicized, the Guidelines require us to tag each one separately. This also applies to the other inline tags: boldface, small-caps, font change, and gesperrt.
 
Here, the question marks belong to the italicized phrase, not to the declarative sentence that contains it, so the question mark goes inside the markup.

Correctly formatted text

There was something I could
do--should do--but my mind refused
to focus. It bogged down in
a muck of unreasoning terror and
could only scream <i>Why? Why?
Why?</i>

Phrases

Here, the question marks belong to the italicized phrase, not to the declarative sentence that contains it, so the question mark goes inside the markup.

Repeated words

This isn't a list, so one markup pair for all.
