st: How to graph

Dear statalist,
I work on a data set that has log wage information of workers through six years.
In order to show how log wage at different percentiles changed between
the years 2000 and 2005, I want to make a graph that has
10th,20th,..,90th percentiles on the x-axis and corresponding
percentage log wage changes on the y-axis.
For example, the graph should show how many percent did the log wage
of a worker at 90th or 10th percentile of the wage distribution change
between 2000 and 2005.
egen rank = rank(wage)
This command computes the percentile ranks of workers with respect to
their log wages, but I could not do the rest of it. How can I make
this kind of a graph?
Best regards
Kisil
