Let's not forget that Nightwish became more popular with Anette. Her voice is more appealing and easier for a lot of people to listen to than Tarja's is. Not to mention she's not a complete egotistical diva who is too good to tour North America because she doesn't like that they play smaller venues here like Tarja does. Overall Anette is just much easier for everyone to like, so that's another reason why those albums are ranked so high. Oh yeah and the songs are pretty good on both albums anyways

MA = Metal Archives
I essentially agree with much of this but that place is generally known as hardcore elitist territory. I'm just shocked that they didn't completely trash the post-Tarja material in comparison to the last album she appeared on.
