Regarding Smartt et al. (2011, ATEL#3351), we find that transient PS1-11xm was detected in CSS images taken on 2011-03-15 and 2011-05-13. On both occasions the object was measured in four images with V ~ 18.8. These values appear consistent with the PS1 magnitude of i=19.1 observed on 2011-04-19. The lack of a clear brightness variation over this 59 day observation period is not expected for a type-IIn SN and is unlike that of the probable ultaluminous type-IIn supernova CSS100217 (Drake et al.
