m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

Rating metrics: Help 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 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 92.5/100, a mean average of 93.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 94.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.9.

“Firstly thanks everyone who took part, 41 lists counted in total so I'd say it's a pretty credible survey of what BEA users are into. Close to 1000 albums nominated, list trimmed to a top 350 so that all albums here voted for at least twice. There's 32 new albums to this list from last time and…”
