Description

I find that the label for Istanbul looks too similar in size to the neighboring quarters and towns:

Research direction

Start with the linked Protomaps map at the supplied view and compare Istanbul's label with neighboring quarters and towns. Use the linked QRank map as a reference for relative prominence; done means the updated styling makes Istanbul's label clearly distinct at this view, with the visual result verified against both references.
