Taking the first one as example
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ArticleFeedbackv5/Higgs_boson/150728),
the reason appears to be the large amount of "helpful" votes (106-23=83), which
means +83 on relevance score, making the score unusually high.
This keeps it at the top of the relevance-score based filter (which is the one
anon users see by default) which makes it even more likely for users to mark it
as helpful, ...
You get the picture.
Maybe we should only display feedback within the last month for the relevant
filter (not yet sure how I'll implement this once sharded though, so other
ideas are welcome as well)
Or we make sure that only a certain amount of positive actions count to the
relevance score, a number that it just a bit under the negative score that
hiding/resolving packs?

Also: it might help to have marking something as resolved also automatically
unfeature the feedback post if it was previously featured (because it now keeps
the 50 points it received upon featuring)
Had this been done, the feedback had probably never been up there for so long
and it wouldn't have had the chance to run away from other articles.
