Thanks Vadim for sharing this plugin with the Moodle community, and thanks Mike for detailed peer-review of it. I left some more feedback in the plugin's tracker but I believe this is good and safe to be approved now. You are cleared to land, welcome to the Plugins directory!

Hi Vadim -
I may not be using / testing this plugin correctly. When I go to the page: "/local/purgequestioncategory/category.php?courseid=2" (for example) using the "Purge categories" menu item, I am provided a page that lists categories of questions in the context, with a number in brackets, similar to what I would see with the standard "Edit categories" function. But there are no other controls or links on that page. Should I be able to do something more there?

Hi Vadim.
I am doing the initial review of your plugin for the Plugins Guardians.
I have posted one issue you need to look at in your tracker - https://github.com/vadimonus/moodle-local_purgequestioncategory/issues/1
Another consideration would be to consider adding the line 'defined('MOODLE_INTERNAL') || die();' to all files that are not called directly (for example, all your "classes/*" files. While not strictly necessary, it adds one more level of security to those files that should not be accessed directly.
I'll post any more comments I have as I work through.
