Maybe I'm missing something, but I cannot find any history on this club, or really anything other than fan-created and/or stats pages. Heck, I can't even find verification that caused my PROD to be declined (that they used to be top-flight). Happy to withdraw if reasonable sources show up.

Keep - Looks like they competed in the Maltese top division, at least once, way back in
1912–13, per
EU-Football, but under the name "Vittoriosa Melita". I believe it's consensus to keep clubs that have played in the top level and/or national cup competition, per
WP:FOOTYN#Club notability. Vittoriosa have also appeared in the
FA Trophy, Malta's main cup, regularly; e.g. in 2018
here and
here, with a future tie coming on 27 October
here. They've been around since 1906 (
[1],
[2]), so certainly a case for there being pre-internet/offline sources out there.

Keep - played in the top flight as recently as
2013–14 Maltese Premier League after being promoted after
2012–13 Maltese First Division. All this information was in earlier versions of this article, which appears to have been excessively pruned over the years. Article needs improving not deleting, as
WP:FOOTYN is clearly met (even without the top flight appearances!).

Keep easy keep, will try to source the article a little bit better.

Gave it a good whack. Not the easiest thing in the world to source, especially given I have no knowledge of Maltese, but it's at least a decent stub now.
