Only four of the points were adopted completely in the post-war reconstruction of Europe, and the United States Senate refused to ratify the Treaty of Versailles.

Opposition to the Fourteen Points among British and French leaders became clear after hostilities ceased: the British were against freedom of the seas; the French demanded war reparations. Wilson was forced to compromise on many of his ideals to ensure that his most important point, the establishment of the League of Nations, was accepted. In the end, the Treaty of Versailles went far beyond the proposals in the Fourteen Points. The resulting bitterness in Germany laid the seeds for the rise of Fascism in the 1930s.

Not very. The treaty wanted to punish Germany for all the damage it had caused during WWI, but Wilson's 14 Points wanted to aviod war by democratic matters and negotiation. So the treaty-makers didn't agree with Wilson...
