Hi Xtiang, and welcome to Wikipedia. You claim that Cupcake Royale was the first cupcakes-only bakery. Would you provide a reliable source to support this statement? Wikipedia relies on third-party sources for verification. The cited source stated, "When the Nelsons opened the first Sprinkles Cupcakes location in 2005, it was the only bakery in the U.S. that just sold cupcakes", which supports that Sprinkles was the first cupcakes-only bakery.

I see you've added a reference that states, "The first Cupcake Royale opened in the Madrona neighborhood of Seattle in 2003. In 2010, Hall opened her fifth location in Bellevue." But I don't dispute the foundation date of Cupcake Royale. My contention is whether Cupcake Royale is a cupcakes-only bakery. I see many sources calling Sprinkles the first cupcakes-only bakery—[1], [2], and [3] are some more—but I don't see sources calling Cupcake Royale a cupcakes-only bakery, let alone the first one.

The other references you've added still do not verify that Cupcake Royale is a cupcakes-only bakery. [4] says it's a "cupcake bakery and coffee house". At [5], Cupcake Royale is just noted as selling cupcakes. No sources explicitly say that Cupcake Royale sold only cupcakes. By the way, it would be helpful if you engage in discussion here.

[edit]

Do not readd the material to the article on Issa; doing so would break "3RR" and incur a block.

If you believe that the material should be added, explain the proposed addition at Talk:Darrell Issa and obtain agreement. -- Hoary (talk) 07:06, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
