OK, sorry, now I will answer my own question. I see I can make a set
of edges by using -joinby-
Covered here http://www.stata.com/meeting/chicago11/materials/chi11_miura.pdf

use authors.dta, clear
preserve
rename author link
save mags, replace
restore
joinby magazine using mags
* drop reciprocal ties
drop if author==link
* drop dups, could collapse and count
duplicates drop author link, force
list
     | author    link |
     |----------------|
  1. |  Woolf   Joyce |
  2. |  Woolf       L |
  3. |  Joyce       L |
  4. |  Joyce   Woolf |
  5. |      L   Joyce |
     |----------------|
  6. |      L   Woolf |
