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 has a Bayesian average rating of 85.9/100, a mean average of 84.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 11.6.

Very nice

Classical and a bit melancholic chart - well done so far!

Good
Great chart! All the right records!

Really, really great, love seeing Closer up there
Wow! we share the same no1 and the only other chart ive ever seen Music of the Spheres in. Also Electronic in there as well, love it. Not a fan of Bowie but other than that this is great.
Very good chart :)

You must have been blown away by In Rainbows... This is a strong chart.
I'm in love with your list,also lots of stuff that just didn't make my top 50 in here :D

For me it hits and misses (through my own personal taste, rather than quality of the albums) but I think your top 10 is pretty darn solid. Good chart! :)

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
