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 87.1/100, a mean average of 87.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 87.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.4.

Some interesting similarities to my own chart. Sparks, Television Personalities, Magnetic Fields. Good stuff.
Decurso 11/10/2014 14:58
Pretty different. Lots of 70s stuff, but necessarily the usual picks from that decade. Can't argue with much here.
jhuik 08/31/2013 17:26
I have to say, you got me with your top ten. Lots in common so I should check out your slight differences from my taste. Cheers!
ProfessorSquid 03/13/2013 13:35
Nice. I like what you ended up doing with the full 100.
ProfessorSquid 10/10/2012 20:23
Thanks for the rating. Good chart here. I'll be interested to see what you do with the full 100.

70s all the way!
