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 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.5/100, a mean average of 91.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.7.

Just realized there is not a single miles Davis in the top 100. This is a travesty. Like, seriously. How did this happen?!??

I love it: Forever Changes at #11! How did you come up with the ranking anyway?

It's a bit surprising that Forever Changes ranked so high, I think I didn't give enough chance, I'll give it some spin soon.
