AV = the site mean average rating.

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 is rated in the top 5% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.6/100, a mean average of 89.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.8.

Boa lista, mas pq vc escolheu tão poucos discos em português?
Well of course I'm going to love your chart - I have 81 of these albums in my collection. Well done!

Apesar de nao ser assim tao obvio, ha certos albuns em comum que para tugas, nunca falham nestas listas. O chamado bom gosto ;)

Pretty good chart. Nice to see Suburbs in the top 10.
Good albums.

OMG 50 ALBUMS IN COMMON! Your chart is perfect. We are so similar it's not even funny. Even the albums we don't have in common I've listened to and they're in my top 200. Check out my chart!
LedZep 12/06/2015 15:34 | #154016
