Wowhead needed comments because it has no other means to discuss things.
Turtle have forum. You can discuss quests here.
Xudo - tauren warrior 19 Sergeant armory.
I don't raid and rank, so you can not bother asking.
Nerf high level enchants on low level gear
Add lvl requirement to bandages
Best and optimal gear for 10-19 twinks
Have fun not only at 60.

We don't want to discuss quests
We want easy to find directions and helpful comments on the top
Good luck finding those in the forum

So effectively you don't need comments in database. You need directions and tips.
If people don't write them on forum, why would they write them in database?

To help the community???
Why create a new thread for each quest/item (which it will be hard to find)
when you can easily search for them in DB?


Can u find me directions/tips/comments/anything in the forum for the unique Turtle quest --> Lieutenant Alverold?

This may blow your mind if you had a mind Xudo https://www.wowhead.com/classic/forums

Comments are good to discuss individual small topics without flooding the forum with posts that are not even something that comes to mind when people want to discuss how to do a quest, the viability of an item, the respawn timer of a looted object or npc, etc..

Difference is that you have a tool for community to share tips. If it is not used, then additional tool won't help you.

I searched it via forum "Lieutenant Alverold" and found:
viewtopic.php?t=1310 - useless
viewtopic.php?t=4356 - official post about their introduction "They are settling on the island called Anchor's Edge, just south of the echo isles."
viewtopic.php?t=4442 - another official post with location "Unexpected Visitors in Durotar Anchor's Edge: Kul Tirans of the expeditionary fleet led by Lieutenant Alverold have finally returned"

I also did google "site: forum.turtle-wow.org Lieutenant Alverold" (because forum search disables some words from query)
and got threads on forum which I already found
viewtopic.php?t=1310
viewtopic.php?t=4356
viewtopic.php?t=4442
but also I got wiki entry
https://turtle-wow.fandom.com/wiki/Lieutenant_Alverold
Amazing. Turtle has a wiki. Where community can share directions and tips.
