Please respect the integrity of the conventional medals ranking system. This table (which mirrors the current Beijing medals table) has been altered a number of times now, placing the USSR ahead of the US. This is being done to give credibility to US news organisations' recent reporting of the Beijing medals table. These organisations are claiming that the US should be placed ahead of China because it won the most medals. However, convention stipulates that countries are ranked by number of golds, followed by silvers and finally Bronze.
