There's also {{Unreferencedsection}} to be used at the head of a section. But checking on it at Template:Unreferenced, I found the following instruction:
This template also has one optional field, which permits the user to be specific in what needs to be cited. For instance, if the entire article needs to be cited, a user would enter {{unreferenced}}; should they wish to be more specific on which section of the article needs to be cited, then the user could enter {{unreferenced|article's section called "Childhood"}}.
First time I saw that, and it certainly will help. For one thing, one can simply add the optional field to existing tags.

Thanks, David. But what about a case where I add some information to a fairly large Article that contains the "unreferenced" tag, include the source of the information I added, but the remainder of the Article may contain other material that is unsourced?
Replace it with the {{more sources}} tag, I think. I find articles which use {{unreferenced}} despite having references very irritating, because {{unreferenced}} is only for totally unsourced articles. It's especially annoying on articles with a lot of references, but one or two totally unreferenced (And sometimes just sparsely referenced) sections.
