Yes, it's messy, but I wouldn't call it a disaster.
Only the first one is valid because the book entry is for an English edition. The foreign language series info should be under Discworld books in those languages.

But the problem is that when the metadata is pulled, the series will not be correct and will need to be edited. And there;s a good chance the blurb will be wrong. The review stuff in blurbs (IMHO) is wrong as it's blurb and not a review. I remove all review stuff from the blurb so it's a proper blurb. So you would have to double check to make sure whatever is downloaded form Goodreads is correct,
