Draft from December 2014 for an unclear person who was allegedly "instrumental" in getting a museum started. I can't find the name as either history or staff so it's unclear how this person was helpful other than them possibly being this author. Ricky81682 (talk) 01:26, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep.
 * (1) It is just a draft;
 * (2) The information so far drafted is plausible and non-contentious;
 * (3) Malawi is a place where sources are difficult to find, and deleting drafts due to not being able to quickly verify is a big problem of systematic bias.

 * It could be contentious if this person had nothing to do with the actual museum and it's just nonsense. I agree that it's difficult to find sources but even assuming this was in the US, we wouldn't have articles on every person allegedly "instrumental" in the creation of every museum so on its face there's nothing that even claims notability that isn't already inherited from the museum itself. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:02, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
 * That's all true. Again (similar to some other MfDs), the draft is inappropriate because if the material belongs anywhere it clearly belongs in Chichiri Museum. That article looks like an early 2001 article.  I suggest merge and redirect to a new section at Talk:Chichiri Museum.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:50, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I have done the merge, with sufficient in-text attribution to, at Talk:Chichiri_Museum. His wife's obituary I found, which demonstrates that he existed.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:04, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
