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 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.9/100, a mean average of 93.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.2.

Nice chart
Fantastic
This chart is overpowering. You should be proud of yourself.
I love your style!
It's funny, we don't have a ton of albums in common but I still feel like I see a lot of me in this chart. I love the eclectic variety and really everything on here that I've listened to is really good.
I thought it would be just another Radiohead & co. chart. This is a pleasant surprise, from Slayer, to Mr. Bungle, to Brockhampton, to Yes, to... You get the idea :)
Fantastic chart! Blonde has been on my radar since it came out—I have one friend who considers it an all-time favourite, and seeing it at #10 here with so many albums in common has me more excited than ever to check it out!
I've never even heard of A Tábua De Esmeralda, but it seems to be very well rated and looks super interesting so it's definitely going on my shortlist as well!
So glad you found some new favourites through my chart—I hope to come back and see how yours will grow and evolve over time. Great start so far :)
