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 albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 65.7/100, a mean average of 63.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.1.

Mi álbum favorito de Santana, aunque suele ser menospreciado. Temas potentes, directos, sin largos desarrollos instrumentales (algunos dicen que es AOR, bueno, ¿y qué?). Pero, sobre todo, junto a la guitarra de Carlos Santana, la inconmensurable voz de Alex Ligertwood.

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 :(
