Prod removed. Claim to notability is as friend and relative to Elvis Presley, see WP:NOTINHERITED. Vrac (talk) 00:32, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. Gene Smith is notable for being a member of the Memphis Mafia. Sonny West, Billy Smith, Charlie Hodge, Joe Esposito, and others comprised its members. Elvis Presley is one of the most iconic singers in the world, and his associates were notable enough to warrant their own article, that being the Memphis Mafia. As a member of the Mafia, and being a cousin and friend to Elvis, as well as being cited in a number of conspiracy theories, Smith is notable IMO. --Kbabej (talk) 01:52, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
