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 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 92.2/100, a mean average of 95.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 95.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 5.4.

Great work. Great to see Dutronc, Diabologum, Daho etc.
Have you tried Arnaud Fleurent Didier "La Reproduction" (2010): amazing album
thanks for writing down all the notes and for sharing these albums Norman.
Je pensais connaitre un peu la chanson francaise, mais en fait j'ai encore plein de choses à découvrir. Merci pour ce classement très documenté !
Excellent. Impressionnant. Grosses recherches. De Roubaix dans le Top 10, j'en chialerais :-)
An excellent and educational chart! Thanks for introducing me to Françoiz Breut, Kas Product and many other artists.
Hier j'ai enfin écouté "Remué" de Dominique A. Sublime !
C'est uniquement grâce à toi que je suis allé dans la section Variété Française et je t'en remercie ;)
My time to use this to discover French stuff.
spectacular list.
So many artists I don´t know (mayby nobody outside france?!)
Ah bah alors là pour le coup, jmen fous j'écris en français. Boby Lapointe et Bourvil dans le top 10 quoi ! \o/ Trop trop bien!
Je te met 90 parce qu'il manque à mon sens AU MOINS un des 3 suivants : Brassens, Brel ou Ferré. Mais bon sinon, au poil ce classement.
You are awesome. Thank you, Sir.
