Merge proposal
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
Think the scope of this page overlaps too heavily with
Sampo generation. Propose the pages be merged, although I'm not sure if it should be under "Sampo generation" or "N-po generation".
Here are various pro arguments for each title.
Pro-"N-po":
"N-po" is the broader category that "Sampo" fits under
Pro-"Sampo generation":
"Sampo generation" is probably the more
WP:COMMONNAME for the concept, although it is a subcategory of "N-po"
While Sampo is a subcategory of "N-po", I don't think it is sufficiently independently notable enough to merit a separate page.
Case in point, the content of the two articles currently overlap to a significant degree. The stuff that's relatively exclusive on either page I think is informative to understanding both Sampo and N-po.
N-po is kind of a jokey riff based on Sampo (i.e. "Oh, you've given up on x? Well I've given up on even more!"). I see it as a "scale from one to ten" kind of thing; I'd say the concepts are trying to express degrees of an identical feeling, and not a precise distinction between exactly how many things are hard for people
While the kowiki has separate articles for Sampo and N-po,
Namuwiki only has
one for N-po, with a redir on Sampo to N-po.
Although of course, precedent isn't everything; the kowiki and namuwiki are very much not perfect.
Subjective, but if I ask myself "is my understanding of the topic richer by having these as seperate articles?", I'd say it isn't, and especially not at present because of the strong overlap.
We have the 9,964 bytes article
Sam-po generation, created 2013 and the 8,225 bytes article
N-po generation, created 30 June 2019, in the frame of a so-called "educational assignment". Both of them could be merged into
The Sorrows of Young Werther, but who will do the job ? The same question applies to a simple merging of the "3" versus "N" articles. Is there really someone who intents to take the time for such a merging ?

I see, I don't have strong feelings about it so if there's no momentum I think can keep. That said if others read and want to contribute to the conversation please do

Support Merge N-po is really a variation for the term "Sampo" rather than a totally different term. I don't see why the two would be better as separate articles.
