The trouble with a peer-reviewed flag is that it is not the guarantor  
of research quality that many might expect it to be.
It will be set as much for an extended abstract of a position paper in  
the East Anglian Regional Workshop on Flood Awareness as it will be  
for an article on Cosmology in Nature. It will be set whether one  
person gives the article a quick going over and says "alright", or  
whether five people review it thoroughly and provide detailed feedback  
about its weaknesses.

In other words, the question is not so much "has it been peer- 
reviewed" but "has it been peer-reviewed to the standard that the  
reader thinks appropriate". And that information is usually derived  
from a knowledge of the publication outlet.
