Thanks for the answer!
I have learned that the csv file must be prepared. Note to Mac users: Xtabulator is a good lightweight tool.
Now unfortunately I have a new problem:
Insert fail with error COM_CONTENT_WARNING_PROVIDE_VALID_NAME.
The logfile has no more information (line number with the invlid name)
Should I delete the first line in the CSV file? Here are the column names in it.

Hello,
Before importing the Data in Articles table, related Categories must be created / imported in the Database. If the categories are created then you can import the articles either with the related catid or with the help you Category Title / Alias. And as I can see in your screenshot, you have not chosen any column for Category extension and Title.
Thanks
Daniel
