this is a two page quick reference guide to Refactoring and the code smells you should be looking for. It's a good sheet to have on your desk or pinned up because you can glance at it quickly just as a reminder. It wasn't until only recently that I have read articles about refactoring and then joy of joys I found the eclipse refactoring tools which are top banana.
The comments on the code smells are quite humorous, check this one
