 Simply, there isn't enough evidence to move it to anywhere else.  The band's website header (and much of the rest of the site) says ""M.I.A."" , and this copy of Ink Disease (from when the band was actually still together) says the same.  Meanwhile, their LP release on Alternative Tentacles  has only two periods ""M.I.A"". Meanwhile, even R.E.M. aren't always credited as such (see latest album ).  For anyone else coming to this RFM, please read the AFD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/M.I.A. (band) (2nd nomination) - it will tell you all you need to know.   "
