Description

While working on [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests_for_approval/BattyBot_52]], my edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Concord_Hicksite_Friends_Meeting_House&diff=prev&oldid=702026405 was called into question by @Earwig and @Nyttend because AWB general fixes changed {{rp|218-219}} to {{rp|218–219}}.

@GoingBatty I think AWB does right, or not?

@Earwig and @Nyttend stated in the BRFA that the change was incorrect. I invite them to join us here to expand on their comments.

I believe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Rp#Hyphens makes this ticket unneeded. This matches the guidance we have on other reference template, such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Citation_Style_1#Pages
