A Smile from the Trenches

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable band, fails WP:BAND.

There is a lengthy list of references, but most of them are to unreliable sources such as Facebook and Myspace, or other sites associated with the artists. I see no sign of the independent coverage in reliable sources which would satisfy WP:GNG, nor of anything to meet the other criteria in WP:BAND.

 * Delete. When I looked for evidence of notability for the album AfDs I didn't find any. --Michig (talk) 13:14, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Note. We currently have an article on Derek Jones (musician). He clearly fails WP:GNG, and his only claim to notability per WP:NBAND is that he has been a member of both Falling in Reverse and A Smile from the Trenches. If this article is deleted, then Derek Jones (musician) should also be deleted. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:25, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 *  Reply  - If A Smile from the Trenches is deleted, Derek Jones (musician) should be redirected to Falling in Reverse so long as it remains (or kept). --Jax 0677 (talk) 21:35, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
