the much more recent (2006) Newspeak (programming language) (the latter's motivation being that its namesake was “the only language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller every year” — not to mention a cutsey allusion w.r.t. “doubleplusgood” :-().

should probably consider some kind of Wikipedia:Hatnote and/or disambiguation page
George Orwell's Newspeak is undoubtedly the primary topic here.

on the other hand, neither of the programming languages seems primary in that sense:
it's surely just asking for trouble to disambiguate solely on capitalization — NewSpeak (programming language) vs Newspeak (programming language)

all this suggests renaming the existing Newspeak (programming language) to (say) Newspeak (object-oriented programming language) {don't forget to refactor using [[Special::WhatLinksHere]]}, adding Newspeak (safety-critical programming language), and possibly adding a new Newspeak (programming language) as a disambiguation page
