That time when the author of a DS9 book forgot/omitted a major part of Sisko's character. Though to be fair, the story wouldn't have worked otherwise.

It's more of a nitpick. It was in the novel Warchild, about a child of religious significance being a pawn in Bajor's politics. Late in the book, the antagonist (who just alluded to being a member of the Circle) revealed his plans for the child. Dax pointed out she, Sisko and Bashir were witnesses

To which he dismisses as "outsiders, all". I found that curious as Sisko was acknowledged even this early on as the Emissary of the Prophets. Surely his word would carry weight in a religious matter? The book doesn't, to my memory, ever acknowledge Sisko's position in Bajoran faith.
