I know that none of the 5-Eyes countries stamp passports after visa refusals anymore (bad idea in my opinion). The UK does stamp passports when an application is received. However, USA has stopped stamping passports with "Application Received."
When has this trend towards electronic records without any stamps on the passport begun? Australia doesn't even have visa stickers anymore.
