Jackie,
Both are correct. What you write depends on the context: is this
chord symbol just a label above a fully written-out piano part, or is
it above slash marks?
If the specific triadic G-over-F voicing is crucial, and it's above
slash marks, G-over-F is your best bet. If the precise arrangement of
notes in the voicing can be left to the discretion of the player, or
if it's just a label above a piano part that's already fully-written
out, "F6/9(#11)" is better.
Cheers,
- Darcy

Right -- "F6/9#11)" is the most concise non-compound chord notation.
Thanks, Everyone, for the responses! I'm learning a lot here!
Okay, so which would be better to use - the compound G"over"F or
the F6/9#11 - I mean which would a musician understand better, and
which would be the music theory "correct" way of symbolizing this
chord?
Thanks again!
Jacki
