Red outline on Database entries?

Anyone know the Rhyme or reason for this? Or how to stop it from showing?

Nothing you can do about it.

Merely something our contributors and us mods should be aware of and avoid where possible:
Red outline marks an entry that has a deleted contribution.

Essentially, deletion of entries is a two-level process:
"Simple" deletion marks an entry as deleted, hiding it but still leaving it there and visible to mods for potential recovery or reference.
"Permanent" deletion just nukes it for good.

That first, simple deletion is what results in the red outline.

While said outline could be avoided by simply removing all affected entries for good, there is/can be on some occasions a valid reason to want to keep something for (mod) reference. With that in mind, @Teebling any chance of hiding that red outline for the db entries? At least for non-mods (though personally, I wouldn't mind hiding it for mods as well).

PS:
Moved this to the feedback forum, seeing how it is essentially feedback regarding and subject to potential fixing via the core site design.

It's on Teeblings to do list:

Only mods/contribs/admin should be seeing this - will fix.

Thanks for the explanation @Schnorki!
