The result was '''delete.''' Closing this early. I think it's a pretty obvious result here - classic [[WP:BAND]] and [[WP:COI]] violations, resulting a a flurry of [[WP:CSD#G7]] articles and blocks all round. Hurrah!

Seems to be a non-notable band with no significant coverage in the mainstream media. No indication of national or international tours, no chart hits. [[User:Polly|<b style="color:green;">Polly</b>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Polly|<b style="color:red;">Parrot</b>]]) 17:28, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

This artist has iTunes releases and is on an indie label. Just because they didn't chart or tour doesn't make them insignificant. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Audiomixxer1123|Audiomixxer1123]] ([[User talk:Audiomixxer1123|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Audiomixxer1123|contribs]]) 17:31, 4 July 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

*'''Delete''' Just a promotional vanity page. No notability and nothing significant - no refs. [[User:Parkerparked|Parkerparked]] ([[User talk:Parkerparked|talk]]) 19:53, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' Few independent ghits, I've found no evidence that it satisfies anything on [[WP:BAND]]. Getting distribution on iTunes is a step in the right direction, but not enough by itself. [[User:Matt Deres|Matt Deres]] ([[User talk:Matt Deres|talk]]) 00:16, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
*This is totally wrong. So you are telling me that because this artist has just been VERY successful locally, it's not good enough. And because he has been featured MULTIPLE times on iTunes, it's not good enough. First of all to all at WikiPedia, get your facts straight. As a representative for The Silver Movement, I know more about them then any of you do. This page belongs here. [[User:Audiomixxer1123|Audiomixxer1123]] ([[User talk:Audiomixxer1123|talk]]) 15:01, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
*'''Delete'''. Above comment sealed it for me. Representatives don't get to edit Wikipedia, that's a conflict of interest. Of course you think it belongs here if you're being paid in currency or in kind by them. Would also recommend blocking the SPA.

*'''Delete''', doesn't appear to meet [[WP:N|notability]] standards for a band. [[User:Nakon|<font color="#CC5500">'''Nakon'''</font>]] 17:23, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
*:This band has been very successful. Does anyone have a fair say in ANY content input? As mentioned before this artist has been interviewed from an INDEPENDENT SOURCE as well as make their way on to iTunes. Does that not account for any success or notoriety? [[User:Audiomixxer1123|Audiomixxer1123]] ([[User talk:Audiomixxer1123|talk]]) 17:34, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
*::Five unrelated people have expressed concerns about the article. I would consider that to be a rather fair assessment. [[User:Nakon|<font color="#CC5500">'''Nakon'''</font>]] 17:40, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' - see [[WP:BAND]]. [[User:Prodego|<font color="darkgreen">''Prodego''</font>]] <sup>[[User talk:Prodego|<font color="darkgreen">talk</font>]]</sup> 17:42, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
*'''Note''' The article [[The Silver Movement Discography]] should probably have been co-nominated along with this one. [[User:Matt Deres|Matt Deres]] ([[User talk:Matt Deres|talk]]) 20:21, 5 July 2009 (UTC) Hmm, also [[The Voice Within (The Silver Movement album)]], [[Distant Love - Single]], [[Sleepless Beauty - Single]], [[I Kissed A Girl - Single]] (a re-direct to the album), and [[Trouble In The Moshpit - Single]]. If the band doesn't meet [[WP:NOTE]] then none of these do either. [[User:Matt Deres|Matt Deres]] ([[User talk:Matt Deres|talk]]) 20:31, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
