Rating metrics: Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some artists can have several thousand ratings)

This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 70.5/100, a mean average of 69.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.5/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 21.5.

Sting has quite a reputation. There's the good stuff (Intelligent, Eloquent, Great Voice, Talented Musician, apparent sex god in his day),

And the bad (Pretentious, Snobbish, Preachy)

His longevity, Police included, deserves praise and his solo career was a success. He gets more hate than he deserves. I'm surprised he isn't more revered considering he kept to himself mostly and did what he liked to do, music.

I'm a fan and surprised more people aren't.

At first I was surprised Sting isn't rated higher. Then I realized that his albums can be pretty hit or miss affairs. Some, such as the Soul Cages, are even pretty difficult to get through. But when he does get it right he is a top notch songwriter.
