- Keep Malacca is a historic place with lots of museums. These are notable, being documented in detail in sources such as Melaka History and Heritage in Museums. There may be some scope for merger, especially for those which are housed in the same building complex but, per our policies WP:ATD and WP:PRESERVE, this would not be done by deletion. Andrew D.

- you've recycled this same argument in various afds but fail to show in-depth coverage about this specific museum. WP:PRESERVE does not override if an article is not notable. LibStar (talk) 11:41, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
- the book reference you've supplied doesn't even appear to even mention this art gallery , that's what happens when you recycle the same AfD argument over and over again. LibStar (talk) 15:36, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

- Keep Definition of "tiny" is relative. This is the only art gallery in Malacca, thus this is the most important/famous art gallery in this state. There are 7 references for the English article (not only the primary source). The Malay version of the article has 5 references now. Chongkian (talk) 06:48, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- Keep: Discussed in the book Building Cultural Nationalism in Malaysia: Identity, Representation, and Citizenship, and combined with the article "Melaka hargai seni lukis", this topic meets WP:GNG. Altamel (talk) 22:37, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
