User blog:Ahalosniper/SPARTAN Sub-Categories

The SPARTAN Category, as you may have thought once or twice, looks just about as disorganized as an alphabetical list can be. Trying to browse through it, say to check the tag of your newly-created SPARTAN against the slots already filled in our many expanded universes, results in sifting through the mixed supersoldiers of all S-II and S-III companies and classes, along with members of many other programs which deserve that brotherhood. However, because of multiple characters with the same Spartan tags and articles using a first-name system, it's difficult to tell who's who and from where.

Rather than some sort of complicated solution to sort based on what's beyond the dash in their name-and-tag (which not all of them have) or start a doomed movement to rename all pages to SPARTAN-###, I suggest the adoption of several sub-categories. This is already in use by a handful of SPARTAN-Is, just search Category:Spartan-Is, and by Elitemaster117 and Spartan-D042 with Category:Beta Company. I think a Gamma Company category existed at one point, but then if it did I'd be able to find it back, now wouldn't I. ..

So, what I suggest is:


 * Making 'Category:Spartan-Is' and 'Category:Beta Company' sub-categories of Category:SPARTAN


 * Creation of 'Category:Alpha Company' and 'Category:Gamma Company', also sub-categories of the above


 * Possible creation of a 'Category:SPARTAN-II Class 1', so that Spartan-IIs that were part of the original 75 (or whatever we're up to, now) are within their own category, separate from fan-expanded Class Twos.

I was going to put a lot more energy into these ideas, but I find myself tired at the moment, so I'll just ask. Would this be useful, or just complicate the bureaucracy of categories?
