Wikipedia activity

I have extensively discussed Ruhollah Khomeini, eventually obtaining consensus on a new lead. I have also edited articles related to Sikhism, atheism, and some miscellaneous topics.

Though sources overwhelmingly mention Khalistan as a proposed Sikh theocratic state, it seems impossible to place due weight on this perspective in Wikipedia articles, with the minority "democratic" viewpoint being given as much or greater weight instead using original research and unreliable sources. The following lists should justify my stance on "theocratic," and these are not even exhaustive lists.

News sources for "theocratic"

• LA Times - separatists, pursuing their vague, politically unlikely goal of an independent Sikh theocracy called Khalistan ("Land of the Pure") in Punjab, have escalated a campaign of terror
• International Herald Tribune - Militant separatists in Punjab fight for a theocratic nation they call Khalistan, the "land of the pure" (meaning no Hindus or Muslims, only indigenous Sikhs)
• Philadelphia Inquirer - More than 1,800 people have died this year in violence connected to the militant drive to create in Punjab a theocratic Sikh nation named Khalistan (Land of the Pure.)
