The reason why you want a separate page of thanks is:
Because the thank-you part of the paper is not a necessary part of the paper. Generally, thank-you letters are unified into a single page, which is bound with a closed spine after the final draft of the paper, and the text is numbered. Acknowledgement is used to express the author's creative experience and thank the relevant personnel.

First of all, I would like to thank my tutor, who gave me a lot of valuable opinions on my research and gave me a goal and direction when writing my thesis.

The importance and value of gratitude;
Acknowledgement has two functions: expressing gratitude and distinguishing intellectual property rights, so it belongs to the academic moral behavior of respecting intellectual property rights.
China's national standard "Writing format of scientific and technological reports, dissertations and academic papers" stipulates that the following aspects should be thanked after the text: National Science Foundation, scholarship funds supporting research work, contractors, enterprises, organizations or individuals funded or supported; Organizations or individuals that assist in the completion of research work and provide convenient conditions.
Someone who gives advice and help in research work; Owners of materials, pictures, documents, research ideas and ideas that have the right to reprint and quote; Other organizations or individuals that should be thanked. At the same time, the role of acknowledgment is similar to the description of references, which can define intellectual property rights and distinguish the contributions of authors and non-authors to papers.
The acknowledgement of journal papers is much shorter than that of dissertations, and usually only includes the steps of acknowledgement, without the steps of reflection and statement. In the process of gratitude, usually only academic support and providing resources are included, but moral support is not included. The so-called spiritual pillar usually refers to the support, care, patience, affection and friendship of spouse, parents, children and friends.
