The MCUK Wikipedia page appeared in episode 70 of the low-profile, Youtube-situated podcast, The Wikicast.[1] The presenters, Simon Clarke and Dan Maw criticised the page for its unnecessary formatting of tables listing 'country represented' when, being a beauty pageant for solely participants in the United Kingdom, and the questionable participation of winning contestants who do not possess Chinese nationality.
