Q: I just got downvoted on 10 questions - why would that be?

einpoklumI just got downvoted on 10 answers on this site with no comment added to any of them. I assume it's not a mere coincidence.

Hello, I'm currently writing my Bachelor's Thesis and have a question about a formality that I was told you could help me resolve.
I would like to use both a quote and a dedication - is that acceptable, or unusual? Would I place them on the same or on separate pages?

@ff524 Thank you! My university has the opposite problem: Anything goes, so it's up to my own judgement. Seeing as this is my first thesis, and I've only read a handful of others, my judgement is still weak, so I wanted to ask.
But if it is not too strange to have both a dedication and a quote, perfect. I'll use two pages as you suggested.

@mafu maybe you can write the dedication on a separate page belonging to the front matter, whereas you can put the quote as epigraph to the first chapter.
 
@MassimoOrtolano Great idea, that would fit nicely.

Q: We need a closing tag: ASK YOUR ADVISOR

RoboKarenWe need an option for closing questions that simply states: ASK YOUR ADVISOR. The one that states that it involves individual institutions rules/customs is close. I know we're limited in closing options so we may not have this type of flexibility.
