Chitty Museum

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

fails WP:ORG. another tiny museum from Malacca lacking significant coverage. LibStar (talk) 07:22, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete as lacking in depth coverage in independent coverage. Stuartyeates (talk) 10:51, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep It is easy to find detailed coverage in sources such as Building Cultural Nationalism in Malaysia: Identity, Representation, and Citizenship; Museums, History and Culture in Malaysia; Re-scripting colonial heritage; The Guide to Melaka. Andrew D. (talk) 13:01, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Add many other references (including from local gov website), improve and add more wordings on the article, add complete street address, add the building construction & completion date, add into another article category, add its architectural info, add the purpose of the museum, add the info on who gave the fund for the construction. And this museum explains about the regional Chitty community which exists in Malaysia and Singapore, thus it is really legit and important article to talk about. Of course the detail explanation of the Chitty community and culture itself is not explained in this museum article. Chongkian (talk) 01:59, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I've added another references from Utusan Online & Kosmo (Malay language) & the name of the museum director/curator. Chongkian (talk) 08:19, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep There are sufficient sourcing to establish notability. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs ) ~ 23:14, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
