The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
No new completion date has been given: the Public Investment Fund suspended work on 16 September 2025, and Semafor[2] reported on 22 May 2026 that further work is delayed until at least after 2030, with no timetable for the redesign or new funding. The pin uses the last reported aim, completing the first half-mile section in 2034 (per the Wall Street Journal via Wikipedia), which predates the suspension and is itself doubtful.
Added when correcting this pin: Verified Semafor (22 May 2026): work halted until at least after 2030, no new date; a 2030 completion is therefore impossible. Moved to the last reported aim (2034) as an explicit estimate and marked delayed from 2030. If a dateless 'on hold' pin is preferred instead, keep 2030-12-01 with dateConfidence 'unknown' and the same reasoning.
AGBI's own headline, "Neom uses one-fifth of world's steel," published 1 October 2024, is tangential coverage of Neom's ongoing construction rather than direct confirmation of the pin's stored 2030 first-phase completion date, and the article returned a 403 error and could not be retrieved.
The Guardian's own headline, "Saudis unveil eye-popping plan for mirrored skyscraper eco-city," published 27 July 2022, supports the pin's general claim about The Line's ambitious, scaled-back scope, though the article returned an error and could not be retrieved to confirm a specific 2030 completion date.
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
