:{{tlx|cite|...|pp{{=}}300–305}} and {{code|Johnson, 2008, pp. 300–305}}
Is there any guidance in [[WP:MOS]] or other Wikipedia-namespace pages on this point? I never use {{code|pp.}} and never thought twice about it. [[User:Daask|Daask]] ([[User talk:Daask|talk]]) 04:10, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
:Conventionally, "p." is short for "page" and "pp." is short for "pages". So if you want to cite a single page whose number is hyphenated, use "p. 300-305." If you want to cite multiple pages, use "pp. 300–305" (note also the en-dash in place of the hyphen). —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 04:27, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
