At customer events a few years ago we started handing out one-page "Survival Guides" (printed both sides and laminated) with links to important resources. The wiki versions of the Survival Guides are meant to do the same things without killing trees or using laminating machines. Please add resources you find useful, and/or rearrange the ones that are here, for example adding subsections - it is the wiki way!
