Absolutely! The OEIS is a database of sequences, not of definitions of 
sequences. Adding additional interpretations of an existing sequence is 
one of the best things you can do for the database. Consider adding a 
short paragraph with the definition from the paper, too.

Searching Google for terms of A073216 = A055235 (sums of two powers of 
3)
divided by 2:

1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 14, 15, 18, 27, 41, 42, 45, 54, 81.

This matches the terms given in Theorem 1.2 of the paper below:

Question: Assuming the sequence given in the paper is indeed identical 
to
A073216 (to be confirmed) is it legitimate to include a link to the 
paper in
the OEIS entry for the sequence? I ask because the sequence of itself
appears only incidentally related to the topic of the paper.
