From VfD, I've redirected this article here. Please check if this information is correct.—Eloquence (comment added in December 2003)

Documentation

The above two are the documentation of blender, is it ok to add them to link section? (Because in the blender program there is a link linking to these pages)

Going open source

There is no direct proof of correlation between Blender going open source and software lowering prices. — Preceding unsigned comment added by T-tus (talk • contribs) 2005-06-18T13:00:55 (UTC)

that is right — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.112.124.86 (talk) 2009-02-05T15:52:10 (UTC)

(this message is defunct considering Blender is no longer available commercially. Ton Roosendal's Company NaN went bankrupt, and with some luck was able to convince the Angel Investor that funded his startup to allow him to release the sources to the world. Blender's development continues as a result of the sale Blender branded Merchandise and Contributions). -- —Kiernan 05:04, 28 July 2005 (MST)

This message is meaningless,as the problem mentioned does not directly refer to a violation of Wikipedia's policies. Even if it is viewed as an issue, it is solved by the statements at http://www.blender.org/about/license/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.235.232.46 (talk) 2022-03-07T15:42:18 (UTC)

Fixing of Hierarchy in ‘Rendering’ section

Blender (software)#Rendering section has issues with heading levels.

Levels

Cycles
Hydra Storm
- GPU rendering
- Integrator
- Open Shading Language
- Materials
EEVEE
Workbench
External renderers
Texturing and shading

I would like a second opinion before editing the article, in case I am wrong. Please review my suggested hierarchy.

Levels (Suggested)

- EEVEE
- Workbench
- Hydra Storm
Open Shading Language
