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 81.9/100, a mean average of 80.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 12.6.

Awesome mix of classics. Can't go wrong with Wu-Tang, Jeff Buckley and Dylan all in the top 10.

Quite diverse, but it feels a bit like charts from 2 different persons mixed together...

Good chart. We got a fair amount in common just have the albums ranked differently. I can appreciate the diversity on this chart
