# {{anchor|FORCEDINTERPRET}}Attempting to force an untoward interpretation of policy, or impose one's own novel view of "standards to apply" rather than those of the community.
#:<small>Example: Presenting a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia essays|Wikipedia essay]] that was written by a single editor as though it were a consensus policy.</small>
# {{anchor|GASLIGHTING}}Employing [[gaslighting]] tactics by using misdirection, repetition, contradiction, and off-topic rambling to destabilize a discussion by sowing doubt and discord.
#: <small>Example: Repeatedly complaining about bias in the press or clickbait to undermine reliable sources, while ignoring requests to stay on topic.</small>
