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 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 91.6/100, a mean average of 92.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.0.

É interessante de ver uma lista com tanta musica brasiléira. Pessoalmente ainda não conheço muita musica do Brasil mas estou muito interessado. Acho que vou usar este chart como lista de recomendação. :)

Wow! Thank you so much for your kind comment! You have no idea (or perhaps you do) how happy I am to help introduce a fan to Kristian Mattson's music. It means a lot to me.
Yeah, anyway, you're welcome' :) -Ryan

Muito interessante o seu chart, apesar de conter uma série de títulos e albums que são desconhecidos até para a maioria dos brasileiros. Particularmente, há uma série deles que eu não gosto, mas reconheço ser muito dificil encontrar um com tantos artistas brazucas. Gostei de notar que vc também não repetiu nenhuma artista
