The ranking in this table is consistent with [[International Olympic Committee]] convention in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won (in this context, a "nation" is an entity represented by an NOC). The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals. If nations are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by IOC country code.

In [[Boxing at the 2010 Commonwealth Games|Boxing]] two bronze medals were awarded in each weight class. Additionally there was a tie of three athletes for the third place in the [[Athletics at the 2010 Commonwealth Games – Women's pole vault|women's pole vault]] in [[Athletics at the 2010 Commonwealth Games|athletics]] meant that three bronze medals were awarded. Therefore, the total number of bronze medals is greater than the total number of gold or silver medals.<ref name="cbcnews">{{cite news | url=http://www.cbc.ca/commonwealthgames/story/2010/10/12/spc-commonwealth-day9-athletics-roundup.html | title=Pole vault tie boosts Canada's medal count on Day 9 | accessdate=8 April 2011 | date=12 October 2010 | publisher=[[CBC News]]}}</ref>

===Athletics===

====Women's 100 metres====
[[Sally Pearson]], an Australian hurdles specialist, was the initial winner of the gold medal in the [[Athletics at the 2010 Commonwealth Games – Women's 100 metres|women's 100 metres]] contest. However, the English Commonwealth Association launched an appeal arguing that Pearson had also false started at the same time that [[Laura Turner (sprinter)|Laura Turner]] was disqualified for doing so. A final decision could not be made before the final as the chief start judge had left the stadium and the starter has no authority to disqualify an athlete. Pearson was disqualified later that night but a delay in communication meant Pearson was only told of the decision against her immediately prior to the medal ceremony. Nigeria's [[Oludamola Osayomi]] was promoted to the gold medal, while [[Natasha Mayers]] of [[Saint Vincent and the Grenadines]] and English athlete [[Katherine Endacott]] were elevated to the silver and bronze positions, respectively.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/commonwealth_games/delhi_2010/9073167.stm 'Communication blunder' sees Pearson stripped of gold].
