In just the matter of a week or two, I’ve already revamped, overhauled, or written large segments of these following articles. I haven't really been keeping track though, not having an account until now (see below for old user names). Those are just the contributions that I can remember off the top of my head IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER:

Leonid Brezhnev, British Empire, Fidel Castro, Chinese historiography, Colonization of Africa, Communism, Deng Xiaoping, East Asian Tigers, Economy of Taiwan, Fascism, Finance Capitalism, Four Modernizations, genocide, Great Depression, History of Belgium, History of Brazil, History of China, History of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, History of the People's Republic of China, History of Germany, History of Taiwan, History of the United Kingdom, History of the United States, Hu Jintao, Hu Yaobang, Imperialism in Asia, Jiang Zemin, Saddam Hussein, Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il, kimjongilia, Leopold II of Belgium, Mao, Karl Marx, Mussolini, New Imperialism, Politburo Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, Soviet Union, Stalin, Getulio Dorneles Vargas, World War I, World War II

So far I’ve been preoccupied with the topics of modern China and nineteenth century imperialism, but I’ve also contributed to pages on Brazil, Russia and Ming China. I’d appreciate some suggestions for other topics.
