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 80.2/100, a mean average of 77.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 17.1.

Nice chart!! Some notes to why these albums are your faves (especially the Polish picks!) would make a great addition :)

Having Michael in your top 10 (twice), already is a win-win ;)
Then 5 of his albums, plus some other classics like Nirvana. Holy....
Besides maybe two, there's not one single bad/mediocre LP here.

I like some albums, but the list is very repetitive. I liked to see some albums from your own country, I'll look for some of that.

Really unique mix... there's nothing wrong with a little Michael Jackson in your chart.
