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 6% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.5/100, a mean average of 90.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.0.

In reply to Arthurbittencourt. The albums I have chosen are brilliant albums. I defy anyone to say otherwise. For weirder stuff..check out my decade charts. You will find a more eclectic selection in there my friend. Particularly the more modern charts.

I like your choices for Dylan,and the way you rank Rolling Stones and The Beatles. But there is more to life than what you are into. Try weirder stuff. Show us your uglier side!
