Basically this is an attempt to make a list of mistakes the visual effects department has made to try to gage the reliability of Star Trek visuals.
Here is an example that WILGA just found.
Voyager: Year of Hell

Micrometeoroids are much smaller if the sources I have found are to be believed, but who want to see a bunch of grains of sand moving at speeds so fast that you can't see them.

Re: VFX mistakes in Star Trek
The episode with the guys who speak in metaphor, you know when a phaser fires out of the forward torpedo tube.

Actually, that phaser might be acceptable mistake. Similarly, what was intended to be deflector dish on D'Deridex class warbird, turned into main disruptor array / forward torpedo launcher, but since we have ships without NAVDEF already (Miranda, Constellation) these are two examples that may be explained by torpedo launcher having integrated DEW banks.

Re: VFX mistakes in Star Trek
It was never seen before or since and the VFX crew admitted it was a gaffe IIRC.
