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 5% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.7/100, a mean average of 89.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.1.

Very good and diverse picks! Especially nice soul picks. I'm curious, why is Odessey and Oracle your #1 but you don't have any beach boys in the chart? It seems like those that like one always like the other. Maybe give them another listen if you aren't to aquainted...
