If you go to someone's profile page and add them as a friend, while it's still pending, is there a way to add them to a list? Or do you have to wait for them to actually accept your friend request so that you can, for example, restrict them from viewing certain posts of yours?

Best Answer
On the left side of your main news feed, select 'Friend Lists' (you may need to 'see more' first).
Select the list you want to edit/to which you want to add the individual to whom you sent the friend request.
Upper right corner, click 'Manage List' and select 'Edit List.'
Left side of the window that pops up, change 'on this list' to 'following.'
You can search by the individual's name. Then just click the photo to select them, then click 'finish.'
