Small methods make your code easier to understand, in particular if combined with a good name. Besides, if your method is small, finding a good name is usually much easier.
For example, if you find yourself adding comments to a method's body, this is usually a good sign to extract the commented part to a new method, and use the comment as a starting point when coming up with a good name for this new method.
Commonly applied refactorings include:

Generally, there is nothing wrong with usage of
*or**arguments. For readability of the code base, we suggest to not over-use these language constructs though.For more information, we can recommend this blog post from Ned Batchelder including its comments which also touches this aspect.
