The result was   delete. No prejudice to recreation of an article on the cultural phenomenon per. Also, Stable_marriage_problem describes a number of similar, but distinct, problems, so merging them all into a single article doesn't seem to be a good idea. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:06, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

Poor quality article which appears to duplicate the stable marriage problem article. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:41, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Merge to Stable marriage problem. ~KvnG 05:21, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Go further, Merge this one, Stable marriage problem, and Stable roommates problem all to Stable matching algorithm Noyster  (talk),  17:43, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Obvious delete Not a single reliable source (and the sources listed don't even mention a "marriage bazaar", making this effectively unsourced). Unsourced info is not suitable for merging either, so deletion is the only viable option. --Randykitty (talk) 17:34, 28 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete This one is a little tricky. On one hand the article emphasizes algorithms one might use in matching partners in a marriage bazaar. In this context I was unable to find any reliable sources discussing algorithms for a bazaar or "the marriage bazaar problem". On the other hand, the cultural concept of a marriage bazaar is well known in India (maybe in Afghanistan, Iran, and Hong Kong, too)--based on a quick search, this topic could be notable. Ultimately, the poor quality of the article that decides it. Best to blow it up per WP:TNT. But there is no prejudice to recreation of an article on the cultural phenomenon. --Mark viking (talk) 19:41, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
