ruby on rails - Devise Giving Admin Privileges to Destroy -

just added admin model devise. on rails 4.

i give admin privileges destroy , update articles other users have created.

having trouble finding documentation on how so.

right have on index page, allows current creator destroy/edit:

<% if current_user == article.user %>   <p>     <%= link_to 'edit', edit_article_path(article) %>     <%= link_to 'destroy', article, method: :delete, data: { confirm: 'are sure?' } %>   </p> <%end%> 

would add here let admins able well?

also here destroy action in articles_controller:

def destroy   @article = current_user.articles.find(params[:id])   @article.destroy  respond_to |format|   format.html { redirect_to articles_url, notice: 'article destroyed.' }   format.json { head :no_content }  end end 

thank of help! still rails newbie. tons learn. if documented somewhere please point me in direction. thanks!

here go. quite extensive documentation:
