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 10% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.9/100, a mean average of 86.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 12.1.

One of the most "typical" BEA Charts - Albums that everyone loves.
Good, but a bit boring to read.

Good list, a bit standard but there's nothing wrong with that.

Hum, our chart aren't very dissimilar. I like many things here a lot, especially The Antlers in the top 10 :D
The Andrew Jackson Jihad album is intriguing, I'll check it out 0_0
