You could delete them all (or move them to another directory). You
won't pass R CMD check, but it sounds as though you don't care about
that.
Alternatively, you could write a small function to replace the comment
asking for a title with a junk title. Just loop over all the Rd files,
read them, substitute for the default title line, and write them back.
If you don't want informative help files, it's really not much work to
make uninformative ones.
