As the article has been already made, I've got some good amount of time for now on to do research on score systems of each possible Sonic game. Yes I know, arcademic things like points aren't really important aspect of these games or they are not the reason why we play them, but considering that I have found lots sources and places where these things are listed, I like to give a try and document scoring lists on each possible game.

In the main post here, I like to give some little help for everyone whoever is also interested on helping to expand the article for each game. In my opinion, ordered lists or tables are ideal ways to create score lists for each game. Original research by playing the game itself is obviously allowed, but using the source provides accuracy for the claim, as I have noticed lot of instruction manuals or strategy guides have score lists included as well.

Even though not every game's score system is demanded to be documented right now (includes ports and re-releases if there aren't any differences), main titles and most of the spin-off games should initially be documented right from the start.

Here's sources from several games for other users to help researching:

Sonic 1 (16-bit): 'US manual, 'The GHZ page & Zone: 0 page 

Sonic 1 (8-bit): 'US manual & 'The GHZ page

Sonic 2 (8-bit): US manual & The GHZ page 

Sonic 2 (16-bit): US manual, The GHZ page & Zone: 0 page 

Sonic CD: US manual, The GHZ page & Zone: 0 page 

Sonic Chaos: US manual & The GHZ page 

Sonic Spinball (16-bit): The GHZ page 

Sonic Spinball (8-bit): US manual & The GHZ page

Sonic 3 & Knuckles: S3 US manual, S&K manual, The GHZ page (S3), The GHZ page (S&K), 

You may notice the pattern here, but basically manuals, in-game hints or other websites provide possible sources for each game. Strategy guides (such as this) can also contain complete list of score systems as well. Feel free to ask questions or other possible sources in the thread.
