Kejardon
Super Metroid Documentation (external link)
The revered "Kej's notes" that everybody hears about at some point in their lives. Even homeless Lithuanians who have never touched a computer know what these are. If you're serious about hacking Super Metroid, these notes will prove to be a very valuable resource.
BlackTelomeres
SMILE FAQ (external link)
Somewhat dated, but the information is detailed and still relevant for the most part. I (Grime) learned a lot from this page when I was new to editing Super Metroid.
