Fair use rationale for Image:MnT logo.gif

Image:MnT logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:11, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Money Laundering

This article was cited for a money laundering charge against M&T. However, reading the article leads me to believe that the launderer and the teller were the only ones really at fault here, not M&T. I have marked this as WP:UNDUE since it reads like it was the bank's fault, not the people actually involved. Zero Serenity ^{(talk - contributions)} 17:44, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Yes, the teller may have acted with out the knowledge of those higher up in the company, but the judge ordered the bank to forfeit the money. Also, its relevant to the article because it is directly related to the concerns of the Federal Reserve Board that the bank has poor anti-money laundering controls.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Rusf10 (talk • contribs)

The problem I have with this is the questionable amount of weight it has. Other bank's articles tend to have notability for major injunctions and such but things of such trivial value tend not to show up. Also, do you have something other than the WSJ as a source? Their paywall stands in my way. Zero Serenity ^{(talk - contributions)} 18:36, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

I'm still kinda on the fence about this one. I'll let it sit for a couple days or so and see how I feel then unless somebody jumps on this one. Zero Serenity ^{(talk - contributions)} 19:10, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
