Essentially unsourced (only "reference" is to its own website). Doesn't seem to make much, if any, claim to notability. —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 22:39, 5 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:BEFORE. A lack of references in-article does not equate to a lack of available references. A basic Google Books search suggests a number of reliable sources are available, an ongoing academic connection exists with the Alfred University and the subject itself has published several topical books. The references in tourism-related sources alone could be enough to allow this to pass WP:GNG. Stalwart111 02:11, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I've added some sources, which took approximately 2.2 seconds with Google. Easily complemented by the book sources Stalwart referenced above. StarM 17:24, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as WP:BEFORE was clearly not performed with consideration of AfD. Not being sourced in itself, baring serious BLP violations, is not reason for deletion. Being a museum containing over 8,000 ceramic works is a claim of notability. --Oakshade (talk) 23:17, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
