Task force members have most of the same privileges as local administrators, but on all wikis; they also have access to a few extra tools that help them react quickly and effectively to find and remove vandalism and spam. It's important to note that they do not replace or "outrank" local administrators. The local community and the local admins are responsible for their wiki-specific tasks; but the task force is only there to help with cleaning cross-Fandom spam, and reverting vandalism on quiet or inactive wikis.
