The best feature of WoWHead is that you actually get a decimal for locations (last time I checked Allakhazam and Thottbot, it didn't exist). Makes a big difference to go to 43,3;53,4 instead of 43;53

Also, the site uses AJAX extensively. The "page doesn't reload when I click next!" thing. It actually loads in advance but hides the content, when you click next it hides the previous page and shows the next page, while the next and previous in line are cached.

So overall, the "behind the scene" code is probably as good on both sites, but the Web code is 100 times better on WoW Head.
