 When adding a help_text attribute to a field in models,
 eg: "This field can be left blank if <v1> is False" (where v1 is used as a
 variable placeholder in string format for explanation purposes).

 When logging into that table in Django admin panel, all fields after that
 field with the help_text don't appear, making it impossible to make,
 alter, or delete objects. After several troubleshooting, I discovered that
 the '>' character was what caused it to break, which hence suggests that
 it may have been identified as a closing tag, making everything after that
 field disappear.

 Example shown in the image above ⬆️. As shown the help text suddenly
 breaks after ':', and nothing appears
