Here is a translated version - using Google translator. I am sure it will need to be worked on and "smoothed out". Google translator is not perfect for syntax. However, this is a small article and maybe easy to fix. Also the references seem to have translated into English. However these are not imbedded in the text at this time. Someone will have to compare both translations to figure out where the citations go for the references. And other references, can of course, be added. I can see this is a valuable article. ---- Steve Quinn ( talk) 18:08, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
This article is a rough translation of a Russian Wikipedian article. The text, grammar, syntax, and spelling may need to be worked on in order to improve this article. Your help is appreciated.. Please improve this article if you can.---- Steve Quinn ( talk) 18:20, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
Please see the merge proposal at Talk:Rounding (sediment) and discuss a content merge there. Vsmith ( talk) 14:10, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

I've merged the two articles here and removed quite a bit of google translate stuff as raw google translations should never be dumped into an article and left. I've fixed a bit, but need more verifiable (preferably English) references. The stuff removed can be seen in the article history for anyone wishing to work with it. More to be done - later. I've also removed the image link for the non-working image mentioned above - no idea where it is, if located it can be reincluded. Vsmith ( talk) 15:04, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
This is article is about roundness of sediment, as used in earth sciences disciplines, including—but not exclusive to, geology. Move to a more generic name? + m t 21:51, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
Is there a mathematical formula to derive an object's roundness? Something that would involve calculus I assume, but Sphericity has such a nice definition, it would be nice to have one for roundness. -- vossman ( talk) 04:32, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
There's a proposal for merging this with Sphericity scale. Maybe the proposer could elaborate why this is a good idea? In my opinion, the fact that the two topics are easily confusable and somewhat related isn't enough to warrant treating them in a single aricle. – Uanfala 18:19, 17 August 2017 (UTC) Adding that a different merger – between Sphericity and Sphericity scale – would seem reasonable at first sight. – Uanfala 20:02, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
