Usage
The {{page range too broad}}
template functions as an in-line request for when a citation cites a page range of a book or similar work, that is very broad, which makes it difficult for readers to verify the fact in question. In general, page number ranges should be specific, although circumstances may warrant a larger range, such as a whole chapter.
Note: This template is primarily useful for citations to books. In external style guides, the standard citation method for academic journal articles is to list the full page range for the whole article, although editors are free to voluntarily establish a different citation style in an individual Wikipedia article.
