Ie, if there's a fictional character named Pascal on the cartoon Porcupine Commandos, we might quite reasonably put "Pascal is named after the French philosopher [[Blaise Pascal]]" into the article [[Porcupine Commandos]], but putting "The cartoon porcupine in [[Porcupine Commandos]] is named after this philosopher" into the article [[Blaise Pascal]] is the sort of trivia that even I think is probably a little too obscure to warrant inclusion.
Yes. But I wouldn't say it's too "obscure", I'd say it's too banal - it's simply not interesting or unusual enough.
