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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 6% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.6/100, a mean average of 90.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.6.

yeah probably right
Nice chart!
Great list; a lot of interesting choices... it will take me a while to get through. Nice to see James Blake there too.
Excellent list! Love Helplessness Blues and The Suburbs, among lots of your other picks. I still need convincing on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but I believe I'm in the minority. Might need to give it another listen.
Looks very interesting. It´ll take a while for me to check the stuff I don` t know, but I´m sure I´ll come back to this Chart.
if we had any more in common i would be frightened. great list
