Can you link to the deleted article? Is this locality "notable" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability)? In my opinion it is worth to add entries to wikidata, with triples describing them properly as you did. In the future if the object can't have a proper article it could still have a placeholder ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ArticlePlaceholder). But Wikidata is going to be useful to other projects other than Wikipedia.
