[edit] Article name

Is "Russian salad" the common name for this salad in English? Is there even a common name in English? i.e., is this even a commonly known dish in the English speaking world? If it's not commonly known, let's not hamfistedly force the topic under "Russian salad"; I would propose using Salad Olivier.

Also, the picture of the salad in the article is mostly lettuce. I don't think this would be a typical Salad Olivier. Ufwuct (talk) 22:49, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
