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 9% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.0/100, a mean average of 89.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.6.

Outstanding seventies chart! London Calling, Some Girls, Blood on the Tracks, and Sticky Fingers are all such great albums. Also nice to see Stevie Wonder amply represented in your selections. Great work overall!

We now have 46 albums in common and your love for Zep and the Who is just so damned appropriate. Your chart is even more typically Canadian than mine with great rankings for Gord Lightfoot and the Guess Who. Nice job all around.
