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 84.5/100, a mean average of 83.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 11.8.

Olha, que incrível seus charts, tem uma seleção totalmente versátil de álbuns brasileiros, que por mim foi o maior atrativo. A variedade no Soul, Pop, e Indie foi bem curiosa também. Clube da Esquina MASTERPIECE, haha!

Hilarious chart - so ecclectic.
So cool that you have Before & After Science right up there.
The weighting towards Michael Jackson, Liza Minelli and The Carpenters may alienate you from a few users, but good on you. Stick to your guns. You clearly know what you like!

You should hang around here more often, good taste you have mate, I'd love to see your decade charts. What did you think of the latest Ney Matogrosso album, that he put up last year (Atento aos Sinais)?

A wide range of tastes quite unique. I really like it but I don't know any of the Brazilian singers. But I will try and check them out.

I can't say too much about the brazilian albums but i like the soul albums with the addition of Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder.
