How I do global blocking with CentralAuth? I assume the local RevokePermissions user group I created won't work, since it's for a different global login system. Also, how do I make sure that the spammer and troll accounts won't have access to all wikis once I create the global login?

You lock their accounts. To prevent more creation of bad accounts use Extension:GlobalBlocking and Extension:CheckUser to root out the IPs and block them.
I assume that means the only way to block them is after I create the global login? I guess I can just restrict editing until I have that task done.

(btw, if you have an instance of CentralAuth, link me a wiki where you're using them)
It's after you create a global login. There are scripts, however, that can allow mass cross-wiki blocking.
