Lineage Sankey
The central visual evidence for the kosha-collapse finding: six PWG <ls> labels (left) flow through the actual kosha works they name (middle), then converge into MW's single <ls>L.</ls> hedge (right).
Trust Block
- Evidence: hard-coded PWG and MW citation-flow counts from the documented kosha-collapse analysis.
- Limitations: this is a focused explanatory visual, not a complete source graph or a generated review queue.
- Validation: checked by
npm run build; counts should be regenerated before paper-final use. - Owner repo:
csl-atlas. - Next use: treat the chart as structural evidence, then check companion docs before making a lineage claim.
What the diagram shows
Stage 1 (left, six green nodes): PWG's six most-cited named kosha labels with their actual citation counts.
Stage 2 (middle, six pink nodes): the kosha works behind those labels. Hemacandra has two — Abhidhānacintāmaṇi (the main lexicon) and the Anekārthasaṃgraha (his polysemy supplement).
Stage 3 (right, one blue node): MW's single <ls>L.</ls> hedge — collapses all six PWG flows into one. 40,212 citations, 13.95% of all MW entries.
The collapse is the story. PWG distinguished six named koshas. MW (and PWK before it) dropped the named-source apparatus and replaced it with L. — gaining typographic compactness, losing bibliographic precision.
Shared-corrected-error overlay (APPARATUS-NOT-ERRORS)
The kosha-collapse Sankey above is about named sources. The overlay below is
about mechanical errors: headwords that were corrected on both a Petersburg
dictionary (PW / PWG) and MW. Edge width is the forensic shared-correction

loci join; edge weight is raw count, not residual above a confusion-aware null;
in_pwgissuesmulti-dict fix bundles inflate co-correction by design. - Validation: F4b numbers reproduced in
