- @Tamzin I think this would fall under WP:V -
All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the material
— in this case the sources provided do not "directly support the material" because the edit is misrepresenting what the sources said. - It's an essay rather than a policy, but WP:CHERRYPICKING is the page that immediately sprung to mind for me when I read the block rationale on your talk page. 192.76.8.84 (talk) 19:46, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
