First list each witness in your stemma, whether extant or lost /
+ reconstructed / hypothetical, and assign them a class of either "extant"
+ or "hypothetical". For example:
+ α [ class=hypothetical ]
+ C [ class=extant ]
+
+
Next, list the direct links between witnesses, one per line. For example, if
+ witness C descends directly from witness α, note it as follows:
+ α -> C
+
+
A witness may be the exemplar for any number of other witnesses, whether
+ extant or not; likewise, a witness may inherit from any number of other
+ witnesses. Use as may "A -> B" pairings as necessary to describe the links.
