Need a disambiguation page?
Can we have a disambiguation page for "Eccentricity" and move the "Popular usage" section to a different page?

Done: eccentricity (mathematics), eccentricity (orbit), eccentricity (mechanics), and eccentricity (behavior). Jake 22:11, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
A simpler definition to visualize: The eccentricity of an ellipse is the ratio of the distance between the foci to the major axis. That other thing with the square root is very abstract. -P3d0 16:08, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
