  Hi!

  Just to clarity, Uncategorized is a default category that is associated with your WordPress.com site and is not associated with the Penscratch 2 theme.

  It’s not possible to delete that category. However, you can rename the title of that category and the slug of that category to a different one.

  Open this page https://wordpress.com/settings/writing, click on the Categories section and change the name and slug of the “Uncategorized” category.

  Let me know how it goes. I am right here if you have questions.

  To set your default category, please follow this guide (Go to the link and search for ‘default’):

  This guide also has comprehensive information on categories that would help you understand this feature.
