Identify repeated words #24

Closed pmatulis closed 1 month ago

Call out when two successively repeated words are used (e.g. "I went to the the store."). This happens very often and it's hard to catch since the words are fine in themselves.

This rule is not implementing the Canonical style guide. It is identifying a syntactical error. Because of this, I chose the numbering scheme of '000-Some-rule'. If we agree to this format for outright mistakes, I can make an addition to the README explaining it.

You could potentially lower the warning level of this rule (as all our other rules are warnings) but we can assess that once most things are implemented and we have some testing for each rule.
