Record label, who may have some notable acts, is not it's self notable. (see WP:Inherited) - Fails WP:GNG and WP:ORG as it has not had significant coverage of it's own. Codf1977 (talk) 10:23, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to be notable, as there are several sources available: The Scotsman:[1][2][3], The Guardian:[4][5], The Skinny:[6], The Herald:[7], The Times:[8], and The Independent:[9]. Many of the sources are primarily about King Creosote, or have no primary topic, but the coverage is enough to satisfy the relevant guidelines. snigbrook (talk) 12:29, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Definitely notable. Try a Google News search, for instance.--Michig (talk) 15:16, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As the many sources above indicate, Fence is at the centre of a culturally-notable phenomenon in Scottish music. AllyD (talk) 18:21, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Whilst I agree that association with notable acts alone isn't necessarily a claim to notability here, I agree that the coverage shown above is enough to push it over the threshold. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 21:21, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as article creator. Fence is an extremely important and influential music collective, as shown through media attention. Giant Snowman 03:02, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
