==What can administrators do?==
The wiki software has a few important features that are restricted to only administrators and bureaucrats.
* Edit protected pages.
* Protect and unprotect pages.
* Delete pages, including images, and their history.
* View and restore deleted pages, including images, and their history.
* Block and unblock users, IP address, and IP ranges.
* Revert pages quickly via the [[m:Help:Reverting|rollback]] method.
* Change the text and style of the interface by editing the pages in the MediaWiki namespace.
* Can view [[Special:Unwatchedpages]] to see pages which may be more vulnerable to vandalism.
 
==What can administrators not do?==
Administrators should not use their administrator powers to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version he or she prefers in an editing dispute that isn't vandalism. Administrator powers should be use to help keep the wiki clear of vandalism, spam, and users who make malicious edits, but not for simple disagreements between users acting in good faith.  Idealy an admin shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.
