My recommendation is for journals to place at least equal importance to publishing replications as for the original studies.
Studies that have not been replicated should be published clearly marked as preliminary results. And then other scientists can pick those up and try to replicate them.
And institutions need to give near equal weight to replications as to original research when deciding on promotions. Should be considered every researchers responsibility to contribute to the overall field.
