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 90.0/100, a mean average of 90.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.8.

Definitely a chart of BEA top albums - with 75% of albums coming from the top 5 of their year. (Edited)

I am just curious your age? I love your chart but I'm curious that there are staunch classics and modern day hip-to-know about albums. Is there a difference of relevence?
