In the site update I'm currently working on, these types of chart will no longer count towards the overall rankings (people using their overall or decade chart as a year chart which is distorting the overall position because of the extra rank points that an overall chart has compared to a year chart).
I'm also going to be implementing a change so that overall charts with less than ten entries no longer count towards the rankings. These charts are typically used by people who sign up to game the site, or are just partly finished & abandoned (suggested many times before e.g. http://www.besteveralbums.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=54613#54613).
I think making these changes could really help to improve the quality of the rankings & make the site more robust.

Sweet, sounds great, this should definitely lead to improvements in the rankings and I guess it'll help the site in general, thanks for this albummaster, great work! ๐ _________________
Something like that is probably the user's custom chart, though they can't make custom charts yet, so they have it as their main chart. I sort of get what the user is doing, but I agree that it would probably be better not to include charts like this in the overall.
That being said, I've seen user charts with 10 Beatles albums in them that are perfectly legitimate charts, so where does the line get drawn? _________________ 51 Washington, D.C. albums!
