On Brainly, it's good to separate into smaller questions than to post a multi-part question.  I'll reply to just a couple of your line items, based on Wilson's "Fourteen Points" which he outlined in a speech before Congress on January 8, 1918.  Those principles guided his aims when participating in the peace conference at Versailles.

What should happen to colonies of the defeated nations?  They should be allowed to govern themselves.  That would be in line with Wilson's point 5 -- which stated that at the very least "the interests of the populations concerned must have equal weight with" the claims of any colonial powers. You could also choose "League of Nations oversight" so long as it is assumed that the goal of that oversight is to give the people of the region ability to self-determine their government desire going forward.

What should happen to German armed forces?  I'd choose "be reduced to prewar levels" - or less than that, without specifying a number.   In general, Wilson wanted ALL nations to pursue a reduction of armed forces.  Point 4 of his 14 points desired "adequate guarantees given and taken that national armaments will be reduced to the lowest point consistent with domestic safety."  Wilson did not want Germany to be treated harshly, fearing that would only stoke the coals for resentment and more war.  In the end, the Versailles agreement went in the harsh direction.  The "no conscription, 100,000 men" answer in the table you showed is what the treaty actually put in place, as well as banning Germany from having an air force.

That's two of your topics.  I'll let you work on the others.
