Improved to Good Article status by David Eppstein (talk). Self-nominated at 21:24, 14 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Gale–Shapley algorithm; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• Good article status checks out. Both hooks are verified and may be promoted.
  I personally prefer the main hook — it is more interesting and more clickable. --Moscow Connection (talk) 01:10, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
