While there is no possibility of 'online repository for rejected novel manuscripts' made available by a publisher, you can find online resources for critical analysis of traditionally unpublished work.

A plethora of self published books can give you the idea of 'reasons it got rejected by a publisher' rather than 'mistakes every failing writer makes'. Nonetheless, it is a valuable resource to study as some of those may have been rejected by a publisher before.

Online writing sites like Wattpad can also prove to be a good resource if you want to study the work of novice writers. Wattpad hosts a plethora of stories posted by amateur to establishedâ€‹ writers, where you can actually come across examples of the so-called 'mistakes every failing writer makes' by chance. However, most of the writeups posted on Wattpad are still in progress, and can hardly be termed as manuscripts.
