Funny you should ask this. I was looking this up myself just a few hours ago.

Are you creating this on a Wikia wiki or are you asking for general web programming help?

This site, Community Central, it meant specifically for getting help with Wikia wikis. Wikia uses the MediaWiki platform (same platform as Wikipedia). As far as I know, the MediaWiki markup language doesn't provide a way to specify that links should be opened in a new tab/window. If you want to do this, you will need to use JS (JavaScript) to directly manipulate the HTML attribute(s) of the links on the resource page.

If you are asking for general web programming help and making your site "from scratch" (i.e. not on another hosting platform like ShoutWiki, WordPress, Squarespace, etc.), then you can make this happen by setting the HTML attributes of the links properly directly in the page's HTML document.

Whether using MediaWiki or not, you can read this webpage to see which attributes to set. I would suggest reading the whole page as it also outlines the risks associated with doing so.
