 When applying normalScale for this material node, the contained texture modulates the texture across the surface.
 
 #### Hints
 
-- normalTexture techniques apply Bump mapping https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_mapping
+- [*normalTexture* techniques apply Bump mapping](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_mapping){:target="_blank"}
 - If texture node is NULL or unspecified, no effect is applied to material values.
-- Contained texture node must include containerField='normalTexture'
+- Contained texture node must include `containerField='normalTexture'`
 
 ### SFFloat [in, out] **transparency** 0 <small>[0,1]</small>
 
-How "clear" an object is: 1.0 is completely transparent, 0.0 is completely opaque.
-
-#### Interchange profile hint:
-
-Transparency < .5 opaque, transparency > .5 transparent.
-
-#### Hint
-
-- If a texture is present the transparency is always multiplied with the texture's transparency, in contrast to the specification. Set transparency to (0) to get a full opaque texture color.

 ### Hints
 
 - Insert Shape and Appearance nodes before adding material.
 - DEF/USE copies of a single node can provide a similar "look + feel" style for related shapes in a scene.
