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.
Thanks, Darcy... It's actually a "lead sheet" with one staff of
notes, lyrics, and the chord symbols above the staff. I'm thinking
for the group I'm doing this for, the G over F will be more clear -
they will probably have no idea how to play an F6/9(#11)!! :)
