Use Base Type Where Possible refactoring
This refactoring helps replace references to a type with references to one of its base types. ReSharper will analyze all references to the type in the whole solution and update those that can be safely replaced with references to the selected base type. Optionally, you can also replace references in is and typeof operators.
