I have just dinged 70 on my pally today and got some def gear (the cobalt set plus shield)... but I need help, have read the stickies but they all confuses me :(
http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-talents.xml?r=Kilrogg&cn=Krynhildr&gn=The+Infernal+Crusade
1. Is the protection talent a good choice for a first time?
2. What kind of Judgement should I use while tanking?
3. What is the best rotation for tanking?
4. Should I use Devotion or
Retribution Aura while ?
5. Do I have enough def to even tank wotlk instances?

1. No.
Most people will tell you to take the 5 points out of Divinity, and put the last point into Imp. Righteous Fury, and fill up Redoubt.
Most will also tell you that we only want a single point in Improved Judgements, as two will screw up your 969 rotation.
2. Seal of Vengeance (must be glyphed) and Judge Light or Wisdom depending on your need.
3. 969. Read stickies.
4. Devotion usually.
5. Yes, but make sure you start upgrading to Tempered Saronite pieces at 74 (and as soon as you can wear the rest) , Saronite Defender at 75, etc. Defense isn't as highly needed as it is at 80, but it's good to have. At 70, 475 is near what you need to be uncrittable. (I'm basing this off the 540 needed to be uncrittable by level 83 raid bosses, and since it's 535 for heroics, and 530 for normals, I'm just reducing the number by 5 per level... right?)
GLYPHS! You need glyphs. Glyph of Divine Plea is a must. Also Glyph of Sense Undead.

the others have answered most of the ?'s that you asked. i just wanted to put my two cents in one some things that they didn't hit on.
get rid of divine sacrifice for right now, if your tanking 5 mans you will nvr use it. if you do your grp will most likely die, your healer wont be able to keep you up through all the dmg and you cant use shield because you'll lose aggro.
take pts out of heart of the crusader, 1 pt out of judgments .... use them to fill out righteous fury, redoubt, touched by the light, take 1 pt out of spritual attunement. at the lower lvls i recommend filling out benediction to help you out with mana issues. this will help you out while you are tanking, but also while you are lvling. that way you can rely on your passive mana return from being healed, and use vengeance for the extra threat and dmg.
i hope this helped.
