As part of the “ Say goodbye to @Anna ” page that is currently being written right now, I am compiling a list of personal messages you want to write.  If you have images, please do add them to this page.  @Anna feel free to reply to any of these messages.

I will take some of these messages and include them in the page.  Alternatively, you can go to the page and add your message and sign with four tildes ( ~~~~ ).  Either way, hope @Anna gets to see them soon.

I’d love to have a message included on the page, if that’s alright! – Anna - Since the very beginning, you’ve been supportive, reliable, and such a hard worker. Though I’ve only been around for some of the time that you have, you’ve helped me grow since the start. Your optimism is contagious; you bring so much joy to our community. You have taught me so much - thank you for all your dedication. I can guarantee you’ll be missed by us all, and I look forward to when I can see you again in the near future. Until then, I wish you the best!:slight_smile:~ Helpie

@HelperOnWikihow do you want any headers?  I can do that for you as well:slight_smile:

Thanks @CPenguin17 :slight_smile:I think I should do that. I was a little hesitant about adding the real images but I saw Krystle’s image on her article. So, I guess it’s okay.

Thanks for adding - looks great as is:slight_smile:I went ahead and signed, too.

I’ve been procrastinating on replying here because it’s hard to put into words how much you all and your messages mean to me. I’ve received so many sweet notes of support and well wishes - here and on the page Aasim started and on my original post and via email and talk… it’s overwhelming in an incredibly touching and positive way, and it’s a really a great reminder of what fabulous people you all are and how lucky we are to have you in this community. Rereading everyone’s lovely messages will keep me going through some sleepless nights ahead, once the baby makes her appearance! Thank you so much for the wikiLove <3 And @CPenguin17 I hope you do add that picture you made to the page - I love it!

Hey y’all!

I created a template which you can use to ask others if they want to leave a message for Anna.  This is the message content:

Hey {{subst:BASEPAGENAME}}!

I just wanted to let you know that I started [[wikiHow:Say Goodbye to Anna|a page]] where you can leave a personal message for Anna.  You can do this either on this page or the [ forums.wikihow.com/discussion/28524/personal-messages-for-anna forums post].  Either way, I hope to see what message you have for Anna.  Happy editing!

You can use the following template to get this message:  {{subst:User:Awesome Aasim/Anna departing}}. Anyway, hope to see what others leave here!

Oh, cool! Who should we leave it for?

@Sewing-Girl People that haven’t left a message for Anna yet on the above page but have interacted with Anna in the past.  Thanks for asking!

13

I see, okay! I’ll help out as I can:slight_smile:

14

Heh very sweet of you guys but please don’t spam anyone with templates for me! I’ve received kind messages in all kinds of places and it’s okay if they’re not all on that page - I love and appreciate them all:wink:

15

So, what you’re saying @Anna is spam literally everyone who has so much as even thought about leaving you a message? Got it! - Aha no jkjk

16

I think that is nearly everyone in the community!:smiley:

17

Hahaha, where’s an eyeroll GIF when you need it (I’m looking at you @InfernoTerra ):smiley:

I’ve never been good with personal things.

@Anna , if you didn’t welcome me I probably wouldn’t be doing wikihow. I’m thankful that you helped me discover this community and help me grow. You corrected me when I did wrong and showed me how to get better at editing. You answered all my questions no matter how dumb they were. You always stayed positive no matter how much I messed up.

I’ll miss you very much… I wish you the best of luck in the upcoming years. I also hope that you won’t forget your wikihow family (I’m sure you won’t!).

Dear @Anna ,

there is so much to say about you. You made wikihow the way it is today. Without you I would have never stayed and learned how to edit I hope you have an amazing time with your family.

Sincerely,

I would like to add a message.

Dear Anna,

Thank you for being so helpful and kind. Your kind words are what encouraged me to stay and contribute to wikiHow. You always answer my questions, no matter how crazy, and you are also always willing to help and offer advice. Thank you for everything that you have done and for the kindness that you have shown. I will miss you, but family comes first, and I hope that everything works out for you. So again, thank you for everything, and I hope to see you around.
