Subject: [PATCH] fix: Incorrect symbols on wiki create article page (#32628)

The message was being double-escaped by React with the
StatusAlertRenderer. This fixes the problem by removing the
first layer of HTML-escaping so it is only escaped once.

+              The message is not actually safe, but StatusAlertRenderer uses react which adds escaping,
+              so marking as safe keeps the message from being double-escaped.
