This isn't my experience. I have created a number of sources for future use, but haven't used them for citations yet. I don't have any blank citations like Russ and you have shown. I just created a new one to verify this to be true. I suspect that both you and Russ are creating a new source through the source citation dialog. If you wish to create a source without citations, right click anywhere in the list of sources on the left when you're in the Sources workspace. Choose "Add Source" or "Manage Sources". Through the latter you can also create sources that do not have these citations.
