+# prefer using replaceText instead of replaceTextRange. (prefer-replace-text)
+
+## Rule Details
+
+The rule reports an error if `replaceTextRange`'s first argument is an array of identical array elements. It can be easily replaced by `replaceText` to improve readability.
+
+Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:
+
+```js
+/* eslint eslint-plugin/prefer-text-range: error */
+module.exports = {
+  create(context) {
+    context.report({
+      fix(fixer) {
+        // error, can be written: return fixer.replaceText([node, '']);
+        return fixer.replaceTextRange([node.range[0], node.range[1]], '');
+      }
+    });
+  }
+};
+```
+
+Examples of **correct** code for this rule:
+
+```js
+/* eslint eslint-plugin/prefer-text-range: error */
+module.exports = {
+  create(context) {
+    context.report({
+      fix(fixer) {
+        return fixer.replaceText(node, '');
+      }
+    });
+  }
+};
+
+module.exports = {
+  create(context) {
+    context.report({
+      fix(fixer) {
+        // start = ...
+        // end = ...
+        return fixer.replaceTextRange([start, end], '');
+      }
+    });
+  }
+};
+```
