Wikipedia has the worst articles on Islam, they're biased and they lack evidence. So you should not use it as a source.
That being said, on the issue of Saudi Arabia or any Muslim coutnry for that matter, it is agreed amongst Muslims that there is not a single country in the world that is fully implementing the Islamic system.
That being said, Muslims do reserve the right to preserve their Holy Sites and maintain the Islamic atmosphere there. The Holy Sites in Arabia can be thought of as a giant Masjid. If a non-muslim entered a Muslim masjid and said "I should have the right to celebrate Christmas in here!" the Muslims would most likely say, "Please, this is a Muslim place of worship that we would like to reserve exclusively for Muslim practices". In the same way, Saudi Arabia contains the Holy Land for Muslims, and we would like to reserve it exclusively for Muslim practices.
