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 84.8/100, a mean average of 82.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 19.7.

I enjoyed spending time travelling down your top 50 chart - which took me to a few places that I ain't ever been before. Good to see an Aussie artist in the list.
Very nice chart

It's been a long while since I have viewed this chart. Madness and brilliant to see you're still on the site - I remember our discussions from around 10-12 years ago. Hope you're well!
Yo this chart bangs. Really nice diversity.

Really nice chart. Lots that I agree with and lots that I haven't dove into yet. I'm really intrigued by The Fiery Furnaces being on here. It's been over a decade since I've given them a spin, but when I did I absolutely LOATHED all of their music. Maybe I should give it another shot haha

Achla chart!
LebowskiRams 03/30/2019 22:21
Love seeing Fiona's best album at the top

Stunning mix of genres across a variety of time periods, not much more to say than that. If you included some notes, this would probably become my favourite chart on the entire website ...
excellent chart !!! brilliant mixture and sequence from jazz to classic rock, new wave-alternative and vice versa .... !!!

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
