Option 1

 * Algorithmic art
 * I enjoyed some of our discussions of the relationship between art and computation, and the questions of credit / intellectual property.
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is rated start class by visual arts and by computer science WikiProjects. It has a history section already, and I would almost certainly contribute to it further, but I would also make changes to the page overall (for instance, the lead is only one sentence, which seems problematic).

Option 2

 * Computational creativity
 * A page related to the page above. I enjoyed talking about computational creativity in class, and could certainly see myself doing research to help bolster this article.
 * Article Evaluation
 * Three WikiProjects give this a C rating, which means it is ready for improvement. Unlike the previous article, this article has no history section at all, and I think a history section is certainly apt.

Option 3

 * Theory of Computation
 * I found this, and I want to leave it here.
 * Article Evaluation
 * C Class computer science article. 2 sentence history section. Could be fun, we'd probably start by talking about Turing Machines (or maybe something even earlier). I would have to do some somewhat serious research, but I am confident that such research exists.

Option 4

 * History of Computing
 * To my shock, this article is C class in both History of Science and Computing. I think the article does well at describing computers as we know today, but the sections on early history (which could reach as far back as the abacus or other devices/practices) are a little under fleshed out. Note that this article also links to some other articles that are good candidates for editing.
