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 16% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 85.9/100, a mean average of 84.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.3.

Like a lot of your picks
Nice picks!! Some notes would make a great addition
We have a contemporary prog rock lover, something not too frequent in this webpage. Great selection.
Loooove the prog heavy charts. BEA doesn't have a ton of prog heavy charts so I can't believe I haven't seen this yet.
Great chart with some wonderful and underrated records. Amazing top 10.
Moving Pictures <3
Pretty heavy on the prog, but original and worthwhile in that, too. One could argue that prog albums really are the best albums ever. I, too, have a deep (and deepening) love for Hand Cannot Erase, truly one of a kind.
My second comment here, just wondering about Nightwish and Anathema. What kind of music are they, maybe worth listening?
Good Job! Very diverse.
Word of Advice: I wouldn't consider it good form to rate someone else's chart badly because they did it to you, like i get it, it sucks when someone gives your chart a 5/100, but work it out with them in a private message maybe? idk, again I don't want to start a conflict, but idk it doesn't paint you in a sympathetic light to give him a 5/100 because he did it to you idk
Prog Rock fan! Thumbs up!
Kudos for the Steven Wilson and Anathema love!

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 :(
