List of Verbs that Require a Redundant Indirect Pronoun

Consider these two phrases:

Le pedí a Juan que viniera. (correct)
Pedí a Juan que viniera. (incorrect)

As seen above, some verbs require the use of an indirect pronoun even when the indirect object is specified. I have seen this pronoun referred to as a redundant indirect pronoun.

I would love to get my hands on an autoritative list of verbs that follow this pattern, i.e., that require the use of a redundant indirect pronoun.

Perusing various incomplete resources on the topic, I have compiled a temporary list of my own (which I will share below), but I am neither sure that it is correct nor confident that it is complete.

And if such a list does not exist... Thanks in advance for making suggestions to edit the list below -- let's call it a work in progress
