The result was keep. There is consensus to keep in that GNG is met, although obvious the article is in need of significant improvement. There are no policy-based arguments for "delete", including the nomination statement. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 22:29, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

 * It's notable, though you may need to translate Polish-language sources. Maybe just merge it into High-speed rail in Poland for now. – wbm1058 (talk) 22:37, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep see Category:Railway lines in Poland, this is evidently a major infrastructure project plentiful Polish newspaper sources. What prompted this AfD? In ictu oculi (talk) 23:31, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep. The article is badly in need of expansion and clarification, but a physical railway line, with recent modern investment, would certainly pass the GNG. Mackensen (talk) 11:59, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment The name should be translated per WP:UE, I tried but Google doesn't help with this one.--Pontificalibus 16:19, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep in some form per comments on the usual notability of railway lines, but at the same time I don't see a good reason to have a standalone article here based on what we have at this point. On the talk page there is a proposal to merge to Częstochowa, which seems reasonable. As for translation Google is stumbling on this: I can see that koniecpolska refers to a place (Koniecpol), but could proteza be a misspelling for something else, or missing a diacritic?

 * Comment Proteza is not a misspelling nor is it missing a diacritic. Source: I am Polish. Literally, it means "prosthesis" or "artificial limb". I, for one, would translate the name as "Koniecpol crutch". MCiura (talk) 12:36, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment regarding the name, one of the sources on the Polish Wikipedia article has a bilingual abstract which describes this line as the "so-called “Koniecpol prosthesis”." I've asked for assistance from Polish speakers at WT:POLAND. Thryduulf (talk) 12:38, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
