Which Qur'an verses are obsolete?

Apparently there are some obsolete verses of the Qur'an; this is known as abrogation (naskh). Which leads to the question...

Question: Which Qur'an verses are obsolete?

I'm wondering if there's a complete list of obsolete Qur'an verses to help the reader recognize them. Wikipedia references

We do not abrogate a verse or cause it to be forgotten except that We bring forth [one] better than it or similar to it. Do you not know that Allah is over all things competent? -- Qur'an 2:106

This indicates it should be possible to tabulate all the abrogated Qur'an verses.
