Suggestion: The Cartel

So this first suggestion◊ here (from the series Narcos) was upvoted in the Image Suggestion thread, but I came across this other pic◊ that I think has an even better composition; in the first one too much of the picture is taken up by The Don and one of their partners is shoved off to the back, but in the second it strikes a near perfect balance between the gangsters, the drugs, and the piles of cash. We just have to crop the dead space on the left to make it visible at wiki size.

Second one looks good.

1.2

1.2

1.2.

Another vote for 1.2.

1.2 is good for The Cartel, and I’d argue that the original suggestion is actually better for The Don than its current pic of Vito Corleone, who is the iconic example but doesn’t really look it in that shot.

1.2 for The Cartel. Agreed that the pic of The Don could be better... is OP an example?

Yes, the OP is an example, though the character himself phrases it more as a primus inter pares sort of thing.

Come to think of it, the image currently used on The Mafia is probably a better fit for The Don because the whole emphasis is on Don Corleone's authority rather than the organization as a whole. Maybe use some other group like the guys from The Sopranos or Goodfellas instead?

I'd be up for moving that image at least.

If we do want to replace the picture for The Don with something else, we should probably move that discussion to its own thread.

Suggestion for The Cartel a wiki size:

Isn't there enough consensus for 1.2? The Don can be spun into its own thread.

Pretty sure we have enough for consensus on The Cartel too.

Here's a separate thread to continue discussion on The Don.

The clock's past due and we've got enough consensus for 1.2, so it's up and tagged. Locking up.
