01
Research focus
Describe nodes, connections, labels and orientation before tabulating them. Preserve source and page, leaving unreadable parts unresolved.
02
Procedure and example
Keep a transcription separate from an interpretive redrawing. State the basis for clickable relationships; visual resemblance alone does not establish transmission.
03
Output and review
Deliver node and relation tables with a version note, distinguishing original structure from teaching aids. After changing coordinates or colors, check that original identifiers and relationships remain traceable.
