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 has a Bayesian average rating of 86.5/100, a mean average of 82.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 18.4.

Oh and could do with another 16 albums but if you are only a young student your chart is all the more amazing .
Like you're chart love the uncle album. Maybe too much radiohead, Floyd, queens could do with putting other artist in that you like because with apex twin , uncle , Dj Shadow , Slowdive + others you have picked some very good selections and would like to see what else you've got . Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of radiohead ( seen them live in Manchester ) , Floyd ( of to see Roger Waters do the wall next year ) and seen Queens of the stone Age one of the best live bands I have seen. Saw them at the Leeds festival same night as I saw the pixies who were the best band live I have seen .
i mean albums
to get 90 add 16 more songs
like that chart ! give us the 16 missing album

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
