As in other Star Trek series, little inside jokes that are not often shown on camera appear on the set. For example, the Jupiter Mining Corporation from the BBC comedy series "Red Dwarf" has an office on the Promenade.

As in other Star Trek series, little inside jokes that are not often shown on camera appear on the set. For example, the Jupiter Mining Corporation from the BBC comedy series "Red Dwarf" has an office on the Promenade.
If Wishes were Horses (series 1)
Buck Bokai, a baseball player from the 21st Century, who becomes "real" in this episode, broke Joe DiMaggio's consecutive hitting streak in 2026. While he's not physically seen or referred to by name, this fact is mentioned in the 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' episode "The Big Goodbye."
Buck Bokai's baseball card, a collectible featured on Benjamin Sisko's desk, had actor Keone Young on the front, in character, but showed "Trek" model maker Gregory Jein, who invented the "history" of the character, on the back. The pair bore an uncanny resemblance to each other.
Melora (series 2)
The concept of a wheelchair-bound female who flew around her quarters was originally reserved for the character of Dax. However, after it was decided that the costs for going to such extents would be too great, the idea was recycled into the Melora character.
Apocalypse Rising (series 5)
In the scene where Kira and Dr. Bashir are talking, she points to her pregnant stomach and says "This is all your fault, you know" referencing that Bashir was the one who transplanted Keiko's baby into Kira. This is an inside joke, because in reality Alexander Siddig and Nana Visitor were an item, and Siddig was indeed the father of her baby.
Valiant (series 6)
Valiant was the original working name for the USS Defiant when it was being designed for the show.
