why cann't I use 

RemoveSymbolize[ParsedBoxWrapper[SubscriptBox["_", "_"]]]

to remove all subscripts? Just like 

Symbolize[ParsedBoxWrapper[SubscriptBox["_", "_"]]]

enter image description here

After RemoveSymbolize[], q1 should be subscript, why isn't?

RemoveSymbolize does not seem to respond to patterns. Unclear whether this is by design or a bug. In any case you can use ClearNotations to revert from symbol to subscript:

Why does Mathematica give this error : ClearAll::wrsym: Symbol Notation`Private`protected is Protected. >> when i run it the second time. – novice Feb 19 at 12:45
Because the package begins with ClearAll["Notation`Private`*"] but there is no Unprotect["Notation`Private`*"] before that line. After you run the package the first time everything in this context is protected so without the Unprotect you get the warning when running a second time. You can either add the Unprotect line or just ignore it. None of this alters the answer. – Mike Honeychurch Feb 19 at 22:25
