Definition of a troll

"Trolling is a deliberate, bad faith attempt to disrupt {the editing of
Wikipedia.} Ignorance is not trolling. Genuine dissent is not trolling.
Biased editing, even if defended aggressively, is in itself not trolling.
By themselves, misguided nominations, votes, and proposed policy
are not trolling. They are only trolling when they are motivated
by a program of malice rather than ignorance or bias. This requires
a judgment of the personal motivation for another's action. Such
a judgment can never be made with anything approaching certainty.
This fact should always be kept in mind when one is tempted to label
someone a troll."
