::My edit summary said: "{{tq| ''It is a successful claim – the settlement only came after legal action''}}". The source says: "{{tq| After another case that was settled out of court, brought by the student James Esses, who was thrown off his course for expressing gender-critical views, the UK Council for Psychotherapy conceded it was a valid professional belief that children suffering from gender dysphoria should receive counselling rather than medical intervention and people should not be discriminated against for such beliefs. Esses’ case against the Metanoia Institute continues.}}"
::Luna, this ''is'' a successful claim. The source refers to a ‘case’ that was ‘settled out of court’. This means there was a legal case – which was settled by the ‘defendant’ without a full hearing. This makes it, in practice, ''more'' successful than cases which went to court/tribunal, because it means that the claimant did not have to go through the effort and expense of a full hearing. It is in principle possible to have a successful legal claim without even issuing proceedings, if the ‘defendant’ settles after a solicitor’s letter.

:::I understand how a settlement can be successful (and as you put it more successful) but a settlement isn't automatically successful. We should follow the Guardians approach on this (as it is the RS) and be notably more neutral and fact based, not make a personal judgement about how successful it was. Ultimately the Guardian do not list these cases together like we have done here. [[User:LunaHasArrived|LunaHasArrived]] ([[User talk:LunaHasArrived|talk]]) 16:06, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
