This will remove all numbers at the beginning of a line of text

Code:

^[0-9]+

In the examples you gave you'll still have an empty space at the beginning of the title. Just add a space at the end of the above code and it will remove it.

To breakdown how it works:

The ^ character says to start at the beginning of the line.

The [0-9] says to look for a number

The + says to keep going until it hits something other than a number.
