I'll keep saying it. Let's have a journal system for negative results and replication studies. Give partial credits for it relative to journal papers with novelty.

So if you have an idea you can search there, see if someone has tried it and failed, and how they failed. You can also search a certain paper and see if people have replicated the study.

It'll help everyone immensely.
