I think it would be great to have a journal or database of "failed" reports. So if a research team tried something and the data didn't work out etc.. it would save a lot of time for the next group if what was tried and didn't work was available somewhere. I'm a materials science grad student (I plan on going into condensed matter physics), and accessibility to protocols/data has been my biggest obstacle to overcome.

Agree those should be public, but no need to create new outlets. We can share on arxiv and Zenodo.
