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 84.7/100, a mean average of 83.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 12.4.

Thanks for the suggestion, I haven't changed the list for 2 years and I'm going to change it in a few days. Many thanks for the suggestion, I may do a general best Persian album list. Actually Persian music is not very well organized because it is mostly underground music with no label, so there would be lots of album missed.

Radiohead top heavy chart is the same as a Beatle top heavy chart. Just too uninspired. The chart gets very interesting in the back 20. I'm sure with an expanded chart I'd grade it out better.

on closer inspection, it's too predictable for me I'm afraid, bro. seems to be lacking that personal touch. not a huge fan of Radiohead. sorry! on the plus side, with 8 albums in common, there's hope for you yet ;)

Very solid Chart
maybe you go on with the best persian electronic album, the best persian post-rock album, the best persian punk Album... and that would be a real hit an BEA: The best persian Reggea album.
