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 82.7/100, a mean average of 80.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.5.

Hard rock
pretty cool, a little rock-centric and too short

Great hard rock chart. Where's the Aerosmith?
covecove 01/12/2011 00:40 | #17522
It's only rock and roll...but I like it nonetheless
The first ten are great, but AC/DC and Guns 'n' Roses back to back is just a little too much dumb cock-rock so close together.
