Benelux (composite page)
This page is adding the content of four pages together on one, a littlebit unnecassary imho Waerth 12:37, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * This is an experimental page: a composite page like VfD, but in the main namespace. One function it has is that is allows searching the four pages together. Thus the usefulness is limited, and I do not mind if it is deleted.--Patrick 13:33, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I would suggest editting out all the copy and paste stuff, since it's repeated on the individual country pages. Then leave the article lead, which contains some useful information. I was going to do it myself, but then figured I'd wait and see what consensus was.  Keep, but hack and slash. Delete. I didn't realize Belux was a seperate article. --Scimitar 13:58, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * There isn't any copy-and-pasting - the article is just the four articles Benelux, Belgium, Luxembourg and Netherlands transcluded on the page (edit the page and see). Starting this sort of things opens a can of worms - there are more potential composite pages are there are existings articles. There are no existing articles like this, and I don't see why we should start now, or what's special about Benelux. So, obvious delete. sjorford →•← 15:07, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong delete Agree with sjorford, creating composite pages by transcluding articles together is a really bad idea. IANAD (I am not a developer) but I suspect this could easily cause server load issues.  In any case, part of the whole point of wikimarkup and wikipedia is it's super easy to create and find links to related pages, so this sort of "uber-meta-organization" is pretty pointless.  (Sorry, Patrick, I realize I sound kind of cranky; don't take it personally.)  Soundguy99 16:05, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, just to clarify... there is a seperate page detailing Benelux. This page is merely a composite page including all content from the other pages. It's unneccessary, since anyone looking up Benelux is presented with a page linking to the other articles. UkPaolo 16:36, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Benelux already covers the relevant parts; everything else is redundant. -- BD2412 talk 16:59, 2005 May 31 (UTC)
 * Delete, no value not already provided by the Benelux article, and potential problems from transcluding multiple pages into conglomerations like this. Barno 18:56, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Did you see the size of the interwiki list on that thing?  Transcluding to provide article content is a bad idea in general, and this is a good demonstration of why. --Carnildo 21:07, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. Not only it's a composite page of several articles, it's a composite page of several articles which were never meant to be transcluded. It also pointlessly increases the load on the already overburdened servers for little or no benefit. --cesarb 00:20, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: almost as nauseating to navigate as the new BBC weather map. --Phil | Talk 08:36, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Very, very bad idea. Blank Verse   ∅   11:37, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is a dreadful idea, this sort of thing is what links are for. Bryan 19:41, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

This seems to suggest that composite pages like Votes for deletion/Log/2005 June 9 should be deleted too, nobody mentions that the objections are related to the namespace.--Patrick 22:54, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I see a number of votes that include the word "article", implying that they are referring to the "article" or "main" namespace. --Carnildo 23:07, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * But it is unclear what the reason of that distinction is.--Patrick 23:43, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * We do it on VfD because the ugly hack is necessary to manage the large number of VfD nominations (it keeps the VfD pages themselves from getting unmanageably huge and difficult to edit), and to make linking to individual VfD discussions easier. If you follow VfD, you'll notice that a significant number of editors—usually, but not always, newer writers—can't figure out how to add a page to VfD even with the detailed guide at the bottom of the page.  It's not nice for us to throw new editors in at the deep end that way in the article space, too.
 * Concatenating whole articles—particularly multisection articles like these—produces a composite that...well, it just isn't pretty. Several navigation templates from the subarticles are duplicated, the interwiki link list is broken, and a number of other problems arise that just aren't kosher by the Manual of Style. --TenOfAllTrades(talk) 16:36, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.

Dvapara Yuga

Dvapara Yuga (IAST: Dvāpara-yuga), in Hinduism, is the third and third-best of the four yugas (world ages) in a Yuga Cycle, preceded by Treta Yuga and followed by Kali Yuga. Dvapara Yuga lasts for 864,000 years (2,400 divine years).

According to the Puranas, this yuga ended when Krishna returned to his eternal abode of Vaikuntha. There are only two pillars of religion during the Dvapara Yuga: compassion and truthfulness. Vishnu assumes the colour yellow and the Vedas are categorized into four parts: Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda.

Etymology
Yuga (युग), in this context, means "an age of the world", where its archaic spelling is yug, with other forms of yugam,, and yuge, derived from yuj (युज्), believed to be derived from  (Proto-Indo-European: 'to join or unite').

Dvapara (द्वापर) is a sandhi of the two words dva (lit. two) and apara (lit. after). Therefore Dvapara Yuga means "the age after the two", i.e. the third age. As per Bhagavata, During this age the Dharma bull, which symbolizes morality, stands on two legs; (lit. 'compassion') and  (lit. 'truth').

Dvapara Yuga is described in the Mahabharata, Manusmriti, Surya Siddhanta, Vishnu Smriti, and various Puranas.

Duration and structure
Hindu texts describe four yugas (world ages) in a Yuga Cycle, where, starting in order from the first age of Krita (Satya) Yuga, each yuga's length decreases by one-fourth (25%), giving proportions of 4:3:2:1. Each yuga is described as having a main period (a.k.a. yuga proper) preceded by its  (dawn) and followed by its  (dusk), where each twilight (dawn/dusk) lasts for one-tenth (10%) of its main period. Lengths are given in divine years (years of the gods), each lasting for 360 solar (human) years.

Dvapara Yuga, the third age in a cycle, lasts for 864,000 years (2,400 divine years), where its main period lasts for 720,000 years (2,000 divine years) and its two twilights each lasts for 72,000 years (200 divine years). The current cycle's Dvapara Yuga has the following dates based on Kali Yuga, the fourth and present age, starting in 3102BCE:

Mahabharata, Book 12 (Shanti Parva), Ch. 231: "(17) A year (of men) is equal to a day and night of the gods... (19) I shall, in their order, tell you the number of years that are for different purposes calculated differently, in the Krita, the Treta, the Dwapara, and the Kali yugas. (20) Four thousand celestial years is the duration of the first or Krita age. The morning of that cycle consists of four hundred years and its evening is of four hundred years. (21) Regarding the other cycles, the duration of each gradually decreases by a quarter in respect of both the principal period with the minor portion and the conjoining portion itself."

Manusmriti, Ch. 1: "(67) A year is a day and a night of the gods... (68) But hear now the brief (description of) the duration of a night and a day of Brahman [(Brahma)] and of the several ages (of the world, yuga) according to their order. (69) They declare that the Krita age (consists of) four thousand years (of the gods); the twilight preceding it consists of as many hundreds, and the twilight following it of the same number. (70) In the other three ages with their twilights preceding and following, the thousands and hundreds are diminished by one (in each)."

Surya Siddhanta, Ch. 1: "(13) ... twelve months make a year. This is called a day of the gods. (14) ... Six times sixty [360] of them are a year of the gods... (15) Twelve thousand of these divine years are denominated a Quadruple Age (caturyuga); of ten thousand times four hundred and thirty-two [4,320,000] solar years (16) Is composed that Quadruple Age, with its dawn and twilight. The difference of the Golden and the other Ages, as measured by the difference in the number of the feet of Virtue in each, is as follows : (17) The tenth part of an Age, multiplied successively by four, three, two, and one, gives the length of the Golden and the other Ages, in order : the sixth part of each belongs to its dawn and twilight."

Characteristics
All people in the Dvapara Yuga are desirous of achievement of the scriptural dharma that is prescribed to each class, valiant, courageous and competitive by nature and are engaged only in penance and charity. They are kingly and pleasure-seeking. In this era, the divine intellect ceases to exist, and it is therefore seldom that anyone is wholly truthful. As a result of this life of deceit, people are plagued by ailments, diseases and various types of desires. After suffering from these ailments, people realize their misdeeds and perform penance. Some also organize yajnas (sacred fire rituals) for material benefits as well as for divinity.
