Shannon's Peer Review

Your article is very well structured and has a good leading section that is able to be easily understood. Good use of links to other articles for references to different topics. I would possible add another image to go with the section on models of hyperbolic geometry of an example of what you are explaining. You could possibly also add images to show what a hypercompas, horocompass, parallel ruler, and hyperbolic ruler are and help people see what the differences are. The content is written very well and neutrally. I think you do a very nice job laying out the different cases for constructing an angle bisector. Nice coverage of material and very good balance of information. Visuals would be a great add in to the constructing sections, but definitely not need because you do a very nice job explaining the content. For Monge's Theorem, I think adding the proof would balance out the material in the theorems section. Overall very nice job and great sources they are very reliable. The sections that you separated your article into is very well structured and flows nicely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by M-meyer.4 (talk • contribs)

Quantity and quality of research

I would agree based on experience that there is not as much in quantity of sources on constructions in hyperbolic geometry, but as in mathematics, this is a claim that I think needs to be backed up before we insert it into the introduction of this article. Despite this, I'm not sure that there is a lacking in research in hyperbolic constructions. I think it would be good to find a source that does a review of the literature before making such a claim. Certainly interest has piqued (again need sources). I also think it would be nice to put these types of things in a History section. When and why did hyperbolic constructions arise? What's the status of research? Are there open questions? All of these things backed up with sources. Travvytree (talk) 14:55, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
