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 charts can have several thousand ratings)

This chart is rated in the top 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 92.5/100, a mean average of 93.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.8.

Terrific chart! Nice to see Joanna Newsom's Have One on Me getting some well-deserved love.

Impressive chart.

There are probably quite a number of artists I need to check out, but with nine common artists and a few I might have included (‘Dancing in Your Head’ and some of Ayler’s albums are certainly worthy of attention) this is a really good chart. The list of best songs of all time is very good, too, and has some exceptional works, like the only recently recognised Karen Dalton.

There aren't a whole lot of people around here that seem to give a damn about Fairport Convention or Salif Keita (although, I must admit that I prefer his early folk music to the Parisian pop of Soro. I need to re-spin Moffou.); well done. I love what you're pushing, so I'll need to check out some of the ones I haven't heard.
