Rating metrics: Help 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 albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.4/100, a mean average of 81.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.3.

Music doesn't really deserve 100/100 (not progressive enough), but the emotional roller coaster culminating in the transition between "Big Love" and "Over My Head" on my version of the CD is so beautiful that I have to give it 100 points out of debt for what it brings to me.

Don't Stop isn't only a song to get you thinkin' about tomorrow, you just won't stop loving this song.
