Keep. Long history, indeed; and it has been a first-division club in the Faroe Islands, whether or not it is semi-pro and fully professional is immaterial, as very, very few clubs in the Faroese system are fully professional.

No Faroese teams are fully professional, KÍ had 5 full-time players last season. As you say, though, the pro status is not the deciding factor when it comes to the clubs' respective cultural relevance within their country. It is however an unfortunate trend in Wikipedia to add the moniker "professional" to players and clubs to make them seem more important. The other day, I removed "professional" from a club in the El Salvador third division. It was obviously not true, and even when it is, a club only has one or very few teams that are professional when the rest (age-specific) are not.
