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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.7/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.5.

“Impressive guitar playing for sure, but a bit too old-timey for me, probably due to the swing influence. A bit up and down with some tracks a bit interesting, and others that bored me a little bit. I didn't really get into this one much overall. 6.5/10. Silent Alarm is a great album. BEA Best…”

“I don't know about the GOAT talk, but Reinhardt is definitely an excellent guitarist and it's good to finally hear some of his work. In this case, recorded in 1949 and released in 1961.
