List of Santos FC seasons

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I believe it only needs a few tweaks to become a FL. I have been searching for other users to review the list and give opinions about it to no avail. I managed to stumble upon this and I hope that I receive great imput.

As I'm sure you are aware, there are many featured lists for this type of article, and looking how those are structured may be beneficial.

• Hardcoded HTML font color elements should not be used. This is particularly important for redlinks, which are red for a reason. While many HTML elements are compatible with wiki markup, in general they should be avoided in tables, as certain HTML table elements don't work.
• The spacing between rows in the national championship era makes sense, but is redundant in the Paulista-only table.
• If every single top scorer is Brazilian, we gain no information from having flags.
• The bright colours used for 1st/2nd/3rd places could well cause accessibility issues. A pastel-coloured background would be preferable.
• How can there be a top scorer in seasons where no competitive football was played?
• In order to facilitate comparisons between different seasons, the "three points for a win" system was used for every season, including those seasons in which Brazil originally used a system that awarded 2 points for a win and 1 point for a draw, before switching to the three points for a win system in 1995. This should absolutely not be done. Statistics should be listed as the rules were at the time, anything else is a falsehood.
• One of the categories is a redlink.
• The source at [1] appears to be a wiki. user-generated sites are not generally acceptable as sources.

All right...

• Fixed.
• Eliminated
• We must assume that we could have a foreign season top scorer. We have had an italian playing in the club for a while and he might be it this season
• Pastel-coloured backgrounds have been implemented
• The club still played friendly matches in those seasons. In the first one in 1912, for example, Santos obviously couldn't play anything since they were created after the state championship started. They played their first match (the only one in 1912) against Santos Athletic Clube, a club from Santos that had British and Irish foreigners in its ranks. The "Brazilian" one beat the "European" one 3-2 with Arnaldo Silveira scoring two goals. That's why he is the top scorer and the club has it stated in its official site.
• I reverted everything before 1995 to the 2-points for a win system
• I eliminated it
• I have resourced it to the official site.
