If you check the original readme.md:

[https://github.com/bennojoy/mysql/blob/master/README.md](https://github.com/bennojoy/mysql/blob/master/README.md)

You'll see there are real double quotes in places you see &quot;

It looks like an escaping error within the Ansible Galaxy site to me.

Cheers,  
Marko
