What kind of tidying up? All corrections you do should consist of optimizing/correcting folder structure, file names, and embedded meta tags.  
I would avoid making any edits directly within Plex, except for playlists and collections.

I’m not sure what you mean. The [Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) is specific to the danced items, not the whole library.

They certainly do. Ensure you have [debug logging](https://support.plex.tv/articles/201643703-reporting-issues-with-plex-media-server/#toc-1) enabled in the server settings (but _not_ ‘verbose’ logging).
