Gene Smith (Memphis Mafia)
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article falls under category of WP:INHERITED because of his familial relationship to Elvis Presley. As with his brother's article (Billy Smith (Memphis Mafia)), this individual has no real notability on his own. Was a member of Elvis' "Memphis Mafia", but not one of the better known and more notable members of the group. Other than books published with a passing reference to Smith in them, majority of article references are from questionable sources. If article not deleted, suggest it to be merged with or redirected to Memphis Mafia. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 21:05, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
