>>Several journals are trying a new approach...in which researchers publicly “preregister” all their study analysis plans in advance. This gives them less wiggle room to engage in the sort of unconscious—or even deliberate—p-hacking that happens when researchers change their analyses in midstream to yield results that are more statistically significant than they would be otherwise. In exchange, researchers get priority for publishing the results of these preregistered studies—even if they end up with a p-value that falls short of the normal publishable standard. It's not exactly the same issue as the one addressed by banning p-values, but this would help a lot.
