I'd do slash chords with the note name - F#m11/B. Guess that still leaves the 9 up in the air. Hm

And thank you mister Finn. Just being succinct eh so there can be no doubt that the 9 should be in there also? Like, no one's gonna play all seven notes when a chart calls for G13 right? But if we write G7/9/11/13... Ha!

As far as I know, there's not a single convention for writing multiple chord tensions.   When using a querty keyboard, I use slashes.  By hand or finale, i'll usually stack them.  

 

It does make it confusing if the slash is used for both stacked tensions and inversions.  Another way is to use parenthesis:  F#m9(11).   Maybe I shoulda done it that way?   

Here are a couple of handouts I use that attempt to explain some of it:

4 Rules of 7th Chords

7th Chords and Tensions

Hope that helps!
