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 53.1/100, a mean average of 38.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 38.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 32.0.

I understand you're trying to make a statement here... but I'm tired of these 'worst' charts. They give credence (and points for the rankings) to albums you don't like. Make a statement about what you do like. It's much more interesting.
Sorry but any greatest album chart that includes Miley Cyrus and Nickelback is, to be kind, not good.
this has to be someone's idea of a joke
I seriously hope this chart is a joke.
