TASK DESCRIPTION Per T306899 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T306899>, this type of error has cropped up frequently on WCQS, and presumably can occur in WDQS as well: F35068788: Screen Shot 2022-04-26 at 12.37.52 PM.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F35068788> Regardless of whether current reliability issues are resolved, this error message could be better. Rather than display the raw HTML in this way, a nicer error message would improve the user experience in the future, especially for those who are not accustomed to these errors. This message could include: 1. Indicating the nature of the issue is with Wikimedia servers, so that users do not get frustrated trying to fix their query that may not be broken and retry (the normal user behavior when you get any other error from the running a query). 2. Instructing the user where to report the issue to Phabricator so it can be logged.
