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 has a Bayesian average rating of 66.8/100, a mean average of 65.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 65.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.5.

A settant'anni nessuno può licenziare uno dei propri dischi migliori, ma "The Monsanto years" dice del suo autore molto di più di tanti altri suoi dischi del passato, nel bene ( belle melodie, cavalcate elettriche, canzoni riuscite ) e nel male ( sbavature, alti e bassi ).
