Box Impossible to Organize

Hello,

My university uses box. So faculty share box folders often.

I have around 50 or so folders that have been shared with me over the years. They all have different naming conventions which is a hot mess. I want to group them into their own folders so they are organized. I am the editor on these folders (not the owner as I did not start them)

How do I do this? Every time I try and move something I am told I cannot because I do not have permission. The owners of the folder could care less how I organize my own box folder. So why can I not move these?

It makes Box an absolute mess (many faculty think this and are trying to get the university to go back to servers)

Any suggestions much appreciated.
