Answer 1

You already use globs; you can use them for any part of the file name:

find -name '*.log*' -type f -delete

Or if you want to be more specific:

find \( -name '*.log' -o -name '*.log-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]' -o -name '*.log-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9].xz' \) -type f -delete
