== Appropriately neutral? ==

The statement that "One who is neither following rules nor keeping all five Ks can not be called a Sikh." seems likely to be supported by extremely observant Sikhs and equally profoundly disputed by less observant Sikhs. Particularly problematic on a page with no references.

A more appropriate statement might be eg "Some sources consider that...", with relevant references.

Even better: "Some sources consider that..., while others dispute this.", with relevant references for both views.

Appropriately neutral?

The statement that "One who is neither following rules nor keeping all five Ks can not be called a Sikh." seems likely to be supported by extremely observant Sikhs and equally profoundly disputed by less observant Sikhs. Particularly problematic on a page with no references.

A more appropriate statement might be eg "Some sources consider that...", with relevant references.

Even better: "Some sources consider that..., while others dispute this.", with relevant references for both views.
