This museum fails the notability guidelines, as tagged since August 2008. Wordpress is not a reliable source. The article was deprodded by Furius. GeoffreyT2000 ( talk,  contribs ) 01:06, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. This is a small museum of local interest only. The single source is a press release from the propaganda bureau of the Greek foreign ministry. Bearian (talk) 20:39, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. The Greek foreign ministry doesn't own the museum, so it is an independent source. Additionally, the Museum has been repeatedly mentioned in Greek language media: e.g., , , . This is significant coverage, these are reliable sources, and they are independent of the museum. The fact that it is a small museum and that it is most significant to the people of Volos is irrelevant. Furius (talk) 21:16, 26 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep. It is a significant museum, better known as "Art Centre Giorgio de Chirico" that is a regional attraction, named for famous Italian artist Chirico, born there in 1888.  I reworked the article somewhat to add sources and to use some of the sources included already as external links.  Museums are generally notable, and this one is obviously a "Keep" decision IMHO. -- do  ncr  am  06:04, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
 * User:doncram, should the article be moved to Art Centre Giorgio de Chirico, then? Furius (talk) 10:12, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, pretty much. Either to that or Giorgio de Chirico Art Center, which I got the impression is used a little bit more.  I trust this AFD can be closed "Keep", then anyone could move the article or there could be a formal wp:RM. -- do  ncr  am  19:37, 29 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep -- the article has been much improved recently, with sources added. I believe it's an acceptable stub at this point. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:27, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
