The Our Standards section of version 2.1 contains:

Examples of unacceptable behavior include:

  • […]
  • Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks

Using slang in the CoC seems to encourage the unprofessionalism it shuns. More importantly, expecting all community members to understand such jargon prevents inclusivity,

I strongly recommend to replace "trolling" with much more concrete examples. Otherwise, minimally link to a definition (the Jargon File has one, but it's badly outdated as of 4.4.7).
