The "Miscellaneous" category under Sharing questions: It's not clear who set this up. Was it an Admin? Can Teachers modify the categories? This is important for collaboration. Cris Fuhrman (talk) 23:16, 8 May 2014 (WST)

Hello Chris. I will add more to this docs page to clarify it. The 'Miscellaneous" catgegory is a course category. When you have a new Moodle install, you get the Miscellaneous category by default. You can rename it to anything you like. So only administrators or managers with relevant permissions can create course categories, and then teachers with the question sharer role can add their questions to the relevant categories - they can change the question category names but but not afaik -the 'context' name because that relates to the course categories created by the admin.
