You can't. Quests and shrine bonuses only.

Possibly silly question, but does this double just the "official" quest reward rep points listed in the quest journal for some of the quests (usually 100-250pts), or does it apply to the first time completion bonus of primary quests and dungeons as well? Eg if I hold off on A Time for Heroes till the weekend, I'll get 10k vs 5k.

For some reason I've had the insatiable urge to grind my GWEN rep points. Seriously. I don't know why, I don't think I want to know, but I'll appreciate this.

I was reading a thread about the nerfing of Urban Blessing (but it is closed now). UB is connected with Norm Rank. And this weekend, there is a boost for earning Norm Rank.
So, I guess Anet wants to give players a quick way to max out Norm Rank so they can use UB more effectively.
I have not yet earned any rep point except for defeating those Norms standing in the shrine, I guess this bonus is beneficial for me. I might be able to learn UB and make it to at least R5.
But whether I make it or not, i'm sure there'll be thousands of player who will max out their norm point and there'll be thousands of new UB players. Result: Cheaper prices of items (i think ectos will be replaced by tomes because tomes can only be found in HM and a lot of players are buying tomes).
So, i guess this bonus is good for me.

If we complete a quest before this weekend will we still get double points for it? Any ideas?

Well I guess I can get the last 46k Asura points I need this weekend. Then I'm done with the five GWEN titles. I'm glad to hear about this double rep weekend.

Um...would that make any sense? no, you won't gain double points if you do not take the reward during the event.

Make me. I don't find "grind less this weekend but you have to grind anyway" as anything to be thankful for.
But yeah it's better than nothing. It doesn't mean I have to worship them for it, does it?

Guess I'd better stop playing true eotn with my monk till the weekend. Otherwise I'll finished the quests and I'll be stuck with a book. Seeing as the primaries give bonus points only the first time. Maybe it's time to take some secondary/thirtiary characters that got left behind through the missions.

Life is good.
