Description
Currently one can skip columns in the csv file by setting the name to the empty value. Not sure whether this is by design or by accident. However, this does not work for columns in the article lines. This is because an empty name is not recognized as an article column.

Research direction
Start by locating the Perl code that parses CSV column names and recognizes article columns; no file or test is named in the issue. Compare how an empty column name skips ordinary CSV columns with the article-column path, then verify that a specific declaration skips the intended article column without changing existing behavior.
