Draft:Keith Evan Green
Submission declined on 26 June 2025 by Cabrils (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

How to improve a draft
You can also browse Wikipedia:Featured articles and Wikipedia:Good articles to find examples of Wikipedia's best writing on topics similar to your proposed article. Improving your odds of a speedy review To improve your odds of a faster review, tag your draft with relevant WikiProject tags using the button below. This will let reviewers know a new draft has been submitted in their area of interest. For instance, if you wrote about a female astronomer, you would want to add the Biography, Astronomy, and Women scientists tags. Editor resources

Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, WP:NPROF) but presently it is not clear that it does. As other reviewers have noted, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’. In short, "notability" requires reliable sources about the subject, rather than by the subject.Please note that some of the references would appear to be from sources that are NOT considered reliable for establishing notability and should be removed (including blogs, company websites, press releases, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Spotify etc). Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like a promotional CV, which Wikipedia is not; and contains prose that is not of a standard appropriate for an encyclopaedia (also see WP:PEACOCK). Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being the subject (see WP:AUTOBIO) or being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page. It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject. It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:ANYBIO criteria #3, because XXXXX"). Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page and I would be happy to reassess. Cabrils (talk) 21:59, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

Keith Evan Green is an American architect,[1] interaction designer, and roboticist. He holds the Jean and Douglas McLean Professorship in Human Centered Design at Cornell University, with joint appointments in the Department of Human Centered Design and the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.[2]
Green works at the intersection of architecture, robotics, psychology, and human–computer interaction.[citation needed] He authored Architectural Robotics: Ecosystems of Bits, Bytes and Biology (MIT Press, 2016).
Education
[edit]Green is a 1981 graduate of Livingston High School (New Jersey).[3] He earned a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1985, a Master of Architecture from the University of Illinois Chicago, and a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania.[4]
Research
[edit]Green conducts research in human-robot interaction and the design of cyber-physical environments aimed at supporting and enhancing human activity. The work of his Architectural Robotics Lab (ARL) at Cornell University envisions the built environment—from furniture to entire spaces—as active participants in human interaction.[5] His concept of “architectural robotics” characterizes designed physical environments that act, think and evolve with their inhabitants—blurring the line between space and agent.[6]
Green’s research has influenced commercial development, including companies like Ori Living and Bumblebee Spaces, which cite his contributions to reconfigurable robotic interiors.[7] His vision was featured in the 125th Anniversary Issue of MIT Technology Review, in an article imagining future life from a baby born in 2024.[8] Two works of Green are included in Ten Emerging Technologies That'll Improve and/or Ruin Everything (2024), a book by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith. A foundational work of Green’s in architectural robotics, consisting of drawings and models, is part of the permanent collection of The Art Institute of Chicago.[9]
