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 charts can have several thousand ratings)

This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 81.9/100, a mean average of 78.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 17.8.

Saw your comment on Taylor Swift's new album so I checked out your list expecting to see a bunch of trash but I actually like almost everything in your top 50 except the high placement of T-Swift. I see most of the comments here are related to that. So I just wanted to say: if you put a good review on T.Swift to troll people into looking at your list to reveal your overall music selection is quite tasteful: that's genius! And good job! haha.

And if you do indeed think that Taylor Swift and her ghostwriters and producers created the 2nd best album of all time, 1. I'm sorry, and 2. I'm just kidding you're totally entitled to your own tastes! Take it easy.

Won't comment on Taylor Swift, everybody has their taste in music and that's ok. Chart has so many good choices it's hard to point to the best, but American IV in the top 10 is certainly worth mentioning

Quality chart, and I'd like to see what country selections make this list when expanded. Taylor Swift is a bit of a head-scratcher, but it's your taste...
