In steps 1 and 2, the regex search can be very useful, if, for example, you want all titles that have an underscore or open paren use:

title:"~[_\(]"

Surely, your messed up titles with underscores, series and authors will have some characteristic you can find most of them with, even if it's just space-hyphen-space.
