Style Guides

I'm a big fan of style guides. By gathering all of the information about the site in one place, they act as a great reference for anyone working on the site. They help out with maintaining consistency, both in terms of the look and the content. Every big site should have one, if only to document the design decisions that were made.

James Robertson has collected a number of links to style guides (page 1, page 2). Worth a look if you work on a large site.
