After the 9.1.5. patch some of the Legion bonus area quests popped up as unfinished on my map, but i definitely did them all back in the past. Probably a bug.

I have the crossed swords icon on my map but the quest doesn't trigger... Isn't this a world quest?

To unlock World Quests in Legion, you have to complete the quest "Uniting the Isles". You can get this quest from Khadgar upon reaching level 110, and it requires reaching "Friendly" in each of the five zones. Once completed, Broken Isles world quests will be unlocked for all characters on your account. This also gives you the Flight Masters Whistle, which teleports you to the nearest flight master on a 5-minute cooldown. That's invaluable when you're running around the map completing world quests, and you should always remember that you have it when planning your daily WQ routes.
