If the new system is to be used for all deletions, then nothing. Under the
present deletion system, quite a lot.
At present, revision of deleted pages are actually moved to a separate
table, and it would be a lot of work to recover them simply for a
contributions list.
If however Brion's new feature
(<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bitfields_for_rev_deleted>) gets working, it
would be feasible to do all deletions the same way, in which case those
revisions would become accessible.
