Someone (probably someones) suggested a while back that it would be useful
to be able to categorize awards in a queryable way. I.e., so that you could
query against only film awards, or only acting awards, or only film acting
awards. 

To this end, I'm thinking about adding a property to Award Category called
(tentatively) "Disciplines or subjects", which expects a new type called
"Award Discipline". This is a non-unique property, so you can say that the
Hugo Award for Best Novel is a Science Fiction award, a Literature award, a
Fiction award, a Novel award, and probably some other things. 

This is the schema on sandbox:

I'd appreciate feedback.

Thanks,
Jeff
