AV = the site mean average rating.

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 92.6/100, a mean average of 96.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 96.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 5.4.

Love the idea. I did however think he really LOVED Beatles, that Black Sabbath were one of the main influences and that REM was also one of his favs. Not according to this, anyone has any idea why? Or am I wrong?

There is some good stuff on this list. I had no idea there was a band named Kleenex. Not sure about one...
Thank you for this chart. Big ups.

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 :(
