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 18% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.2/100, a mean average of 87.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.9.

Great chart. A little too much Oasis for my liking but that a very small gripe. Love this chart.

Eldorado is the best ELO album
16 albums in common

Great chart man. Good to see so much love for REM and The Beatles. You have some good choice on here, very diverse despite having many from the same artists. At least you are being true to yourself. I enjoyed reading this chart. Good work.

Love this chart, you have a Kiwi songbird right up there. Warms my heart. Makes me slightly shamefaced that as a Kiwi I don't even own her album. Oops. However we do share many other artists. Cheers.

This chart is very weird. You have pure heroin in the top 10 -I also love it-, but it's over Pet Sounds. How can that be is a mystery to me. Haha. Good chart!
