Leveling Build

I am sure this has been asked and answered many times but I am looking for a new leveling build or advice on keeping my current build fun.
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Perenolde&n=Angelo
I am currently level 47 and at 50 I am going to respec but I haven't decided if all I will do is drop my 3 holy talents and grab avenger's shield or if I will respec Holy. First of all I really don't like Ret but if you can talk me into it I might reconsider, it just really doesn't do much for me.
I am currently loving my AOE farming abilities but I am finding very few quests where I can realistically use it but it is still fun when I can (or when I tanked the scarab room in ZF today). I know I would need to regear to go holy to pick up more int focused gear but that isn't really a problem. I will probably stick with Protection but I would still like advice on a level 50 holy build that would make the most sense for solo leveling with a few instances thrown in, also do I have the right talents in Prot or should I change a few around? I am thinking of moving my guardian's favor talents into toughness already.

the point of AoE farming isn't doing quests, it's killing the mobs faster than quest exp would give you

Yes, I actually know that but since they increased quest XP, quests are faster so I try and mix quests with AOE (kill 10 of x type). I won't just XP farm so I AOE quest farm, it works for me.

quests are best done by ret paladins, and any paladin can heal (up to easy heroics) without speccing to do so with a couple int gear in their bags

Thanks for even attempting to answer the question.
really though, I know Ret does the best DPS, and I know the I can heal outside of holy, but what I want is a good Holy leveling build and some feedback on my prot build nothing more then that. I like my play style so don't try to change that. If you don't have something helpful to add then don't just add to your post count.

roll shockadin?
and some feedback on my prot build
mind linking a wowhead build? armory hate my computer for some reason

i'm pretty sure other people would find my points valid, and your question is contradictory
"I want to level as holy but want to AoE farm with a couple points in prot"
correct me if i'm wrong, but that's the message i got, my post was just to try and steer you into a single pathway

That is wrong. I am currently AOE farming with Prot, I like it but I sort of want to go Holy.
I am looking for a good Holy build and I don't know what the Shockadin spec is, that is why I asked.
my prot build is basically the cookie cutter one but I have guardians favor and some divine intellect which I plan on moving, my question really was what is a good place to move them into, from where they are.

My pally is level 67 now and has been Protection ever since level 21. I've used it for farming, grinding xp and doing quests and so far I haven't had much trouble managing. It gets a bit more difficult at level 58 when you hit outland since many mobs in Hellfire Peninsula have higher health than you've ever encountered. They are also further apart so you may have to single fight some mobs.
I figured out how to manage as protection though even though I considered speccing for Retribution instead, it involved a lot of aggressive pulls and rounding up mobs before starting to burn them down. Using your mount is great for that as you can aggro a bunch and then dismount to kick their asses. Using objects like
Linken's Boomerang
and
Ze-Thro Dynamite II
works wonders too.
Be mindful of casters though, they're the bane of Prot Pallys.

covered in the FAQ

as i've said, armory hates my computer, can you give me a wowhead link?

ok, the build looks pretty solid, there's only 1 thing i don't understand.
what's with the 3 points in divine intellect amd 2 points in ardent defender?

Blademeld, armory is worked for me this time, here is Bernard's current build.
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=scZVGuI00zgrR
Bernard if you would have taken the time to read the FAQ all this may have been avoided.
First off I did read the FAQ, but that gives a level 70 build not one for use pre 60, different items, different amount of points.
The reason for Divine Intellect is to try and get more mana, my gear is lacking some and those points help with it, but that is the reason for the respec at 50, to try and get back to one tree before going back over to holy. As for Ardent Defender, where else should I place the points? I live and die below 35% hp most of the time so I figured it would be worthwhile.
Funny thing is I read the entire FAQ and didn't see my question answered, I will read it again but most FAQs I find are not for leveling.
