In-joke

Template:Realworld In-jokes are comedy elements added to a production or a situation. The comedy comes from shared knowledge between a specific group such as co-workers, members of the same organisation or people with a shared belief or knowledge of a shared situation.

There are many in-jokes that people have added to displays and scripts for Star Trek over the last 40 years. Examples include:

• the recurrence of the number 47
• various displays on okudagrams and indeed the name okudagram itself
• references in the Star Trek universe to other science fiction shows and movies
• the "sharing" of planets and species between Star Trek and other science fiction
• nicknames for production staff or crew making it into references within continuity

and so on.
