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 54.3/100, a mean average of 30.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 30.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 34.4.

How can you make a zappa list without freak out!, or we're only in it for the money? This is ridiculous.

Almost Right as far as a Zappa chart goes only Problem is Albums 1 and 3 should be swapped. Then again ''Willie the pimp'' is possibly his Best Song in my opinion

Normally charts with one artist on them bother me. But when it's Zappa, not so much...
