Cross-categorization

This and similar categories desperately need subcategories, such that all of the other types of mod categories cross-categorize. That is, for any given mod there should be categories like Category:Released H2 single-player mods, Category:Released Goldsource deathmatch mods, and so on. It is virtually impossible to find what one is looking for without looking at mod after mod after mod - "OK, this one's released, but nope, it's not for H2. How about this one - released, H2, but multiplayer; I want single-player. Here's a single-player, for H2, but it's alpha crap." See what I mean? See the way Wikipedia or Battlestar Wiki categorize. It takes more effort (especially in BW's case; they redundantly categorize in both parent and sub-categories, while WP doesn't, using sub-cats only), but it's well worth it.
