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 76.1/100, a mean average of 71.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 15.7.

Nice Canadian content... I'd like to see this chart updated.
Great chart except for Bon Jovi, some classic Canadian albums.
Great chart, nice to see Twice Removed getting some respect!

Lot of crossover with my taste, mate, yet lots of other music that deserves listing. Cheers!

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 :(
