That means that only these entities are available in ''all'' Source-based games.

The entities in this category are shared between games. They are not shared between all games however, because Valve ships four different builds of Source; newer entities are of course not available to older games.

Mediawiki's category system isn't much good for expressing this, so the best way to check whether an entity is available in your engine build is to load Hammer and try to create it!
