Update:

Since this post is less likely to be seen by visitors to the site and is technically not what meta is for (we were working on the kinks at the time), there is now a community maintained wiki post on the main site listing many resources for blender. If you want to contribute to this, add your content there.

After going through faq and seeing questions What would be wrong with tutorials as long as they describe a reusable workflow? and What questions should be definitely off-topic?

Two points are fairly clear:

  • The site isn't a ground for tutorials
  • People are going to come by asking for them

To help out on that, and to help more experienced users who still have what to learn, I propose building a page where links to documentation, references and tutorial are available. This would also make the site more welcoming, instead of just closing the question.

Another option, just linking to blender.org/support/tutorials.

  • $\begingroup$ @stacker This was mainly a list of tutorial/training type resources (as opposed to asset resources), unless I'm missing something.. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @gandalf3 agreed I rolled back, I going to start my own collection at zeef.com it would have been more useful if we had one collaborativly list. $\endgroup$

It is also common to put resources and tutorials relating to a specific topic in the tag wikis. Most of the popular tags on stackoverflow have quite comprehensive wikis (e.g. PHP or Java).

I'd love to see some useful links and information added to the tag wikis here, especially for common tags like or .

  • $\begingroup$ Nice suggestion, but half of the tags we currently have can barely fill the excerpt box. ;) $\endgroup$
