Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the 
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Sincerely, Jax 0677 (talk) 13:53, 21 June 2014 (UTC) (Leave me a message)
Disambiguation link notification for July 17[edit]
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cash Cash, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Zedd and Big Beat Records. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello! There is a DR/N request you may have interest in.[edit]
This message is being sent to let you know of a discussion at the Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute discussion you may have participated in. Content disputes can hold up article development and make editing difficult for editors. You are not required to participate, but you are both invited and encouraged to help find a resolution. The discussion is about the topic Talk:Cash Cash. Please join us to help form a consensus. Thank you! — TransporterMan (TALK) 13:07, 18 July 2014 (UTC) (DRN volunteer)
July 2014[edit]
Lauren, I'm an admin here on Wikipedia, and I really need you to calm down and be mindful of Wikipedia and how it works.
- Please read WP:OWN - you may have worked on improving the article some, but you do not have authority over anyone else on the article.
- WP:BRD - it's a lot easier if you wait and make changes once we come to an agreements, rather than reinstating you changes every time.
- Please read over WP:AUDIENCE and steady how some good and featured articles are written. Please remember you are writing a standardized encyclopedia article, not creating a socialmedia profile or fan page.
I'm happy to help...but you need to be a little more receptive of change. Many of your edits, while good intentioned, are out of place on an encyclopedia. Sergecross73 msg me 10:49, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
- Please, I need you to discuss on the talk page, and learn more about how Wikipedia works. I think most of your problems boil down to you not understanding how Wikipedia works. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 22:20, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
July 2014[edit]
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Final Warning[edit]
Last warning, discuss your changes on the talk page before making changes, and only make changes if there is consensus to do so. If you go right back to aggressively reverting any change anyone makes to the article, you will be blocked from editing. You need to work collaboratively - you may have contributed to the article, but it is not your article. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 18:13, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
- I came here to give you a final warning about going about editing instead of discussing changes, and it looks like I already gave you a warning about not discussing changes first, and editing without consensus on the matter. So this time you're blocked for 3 days. When you come back, discuss first, and only make changes if there is consensus. If there is no consensus, no change is to be made.
