- I wonder if the museum has anything that could help us with Operation "Majestic Titan", an effort to improve the articles on all battleships and battlecruisers? I'm not sure what we the editors could do in return, though. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 02:48, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
- Meh, if I only had the source I'd help. But I don't. So I won't. But if I did...(random rant) ResMar 04:27, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

- It is easier if you can point to specific type of help (or resource) from the Smithsonian that you would like to access. If you would like certain images, for example, a list of the kind of topic area would make it easier for us to identify what would be useful. Also, if you peruse their website and find materials that are of interest, then a interlinking might be a good way to benefit both communities. Also, I can think of several other organizations, such as the Naval History & Heritage Command, which might have a little more relevant mission and material for OMT. Maybe trying to contact someone like them would be a little more fruitful. The NHHC regularly releases rare or unusual images on their Facebook group and flickr, and they have a huge collection, they would certainly be a great place to collaborate with, and seem to be more tech oriented than the CMH was.

- i expect they would have more info on aviation, from the connection to National Air and Space Museum, although there is a connection to naval aviation. Accotink2 talk 00:36, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
